DESCRIPTION:*Unfortunately\, this event has been cancelled due
  to Covid-19 – we hope to reschedule in the future
 \, so check "our website":www.gloknos.ac.uk for mo
 re details.*\n\nThe Right to Science and the 2017 
 UNESCO Recommendation on Science and Scientific Re
 searchers\n\n_gloknos_ is delighted to collaborate
  with an interdisciplinary team of researchers inv
 olved in furthering our understanding of the Right
  to Science and its implementation as a universal 
 right. This event is in collaboration with Prof He
 lle Porsdam\, UNESCO Chair in Cultural Rights at t
 he University of Copenhagen. \n\nWe all have a hum
 an right to enjoy the benefits of scientific progr
 ess (the Right to Science [RtS]). The right has it
 s origins in Article 27 of the United Nation’s 194
 8 Universal Declaration of Human Rights\, which wa
 s adopted in the wake of World War II. In 1966\, t
 he UN turned these commitments into binding obliga
 tions under international law. The implication is 
 that\, just as governments are expected to respect
  the rights to\, say\, freedom of speech and due p
 rocess\, so they must also adopt measures to respe
 ct and ensure the RtS. The existence of this right
  is important for researchers and society. It adds
  a legal and moral dimension to a range of fundame
 ntal issues\, including scientific freedom\, fundi
 ng\, and policy\, as well as access to data\, mate
 rials\, and knowledge. Yet\, despite its potential
  for furthering science and human rights causes\, 
 the RtS has not received the attention it deserves
 .\n\ngloknos is initially funded for 5 years by th
 e European Research Council through a Consolidator
  Grant awarded to Dr Inanna Hamati-Ataya for her p
 roject ARTEFACT (2017-2022) ERC grant no. 724451.
