In July 2010, on the six-month anniversary of the devastating January earthquake, four USF Law Students traveled to Port-au-Prince with the Institute for Justice and Democracy in Haiti to produce a report on the human rights condition of Haiti’s internally displaced persons (IDP) camps. This report was officially published by IJDH this month.  Entitled “We’ve Been Forgotten”:  conditions in Haiti’s Displacement Camps Eight Months After the Earthquake, the report is available on the IJDH website (http://ijdh.org/archives/14678).  Join us for a discussion of IJDH’s most recent findings when Brian Concannon, Jr., Executive Director of IJDH, joins us along with student panelists Darya Larizadeh, Elizabeth Leone, Ben Lewis, and Ryan Smith.
