The meeting includes a one day symposium on the Role of National Academies and Universities in Promoting Human Rights and Enhancing Equality. During the meeting, higher education students in science, engineering, health, and other fields can engage with speakers at a special student session on Engaging Young STEM Professionals to Address Human Rights Challenges.
