About the Center for Comparative and Public Law (https://www.law.hku.hk/ccpl)
CCPL was established in 1995 as a non-profit virtual research centre in the Faculty of Law. Its goals are to (1) advance knowledge on public law and human rights issues primarily from the perspectives of international and comparative law and practice; (2) encourage and facilitate collaborative work within the Faculty of Law, the University of Hong Kong, and the broader community in the fields of comparative and public law; and (3) make the law more accessible to the community and more effective as an agent of social change.
About the Human Rights Portal Project (https://www.law.hku.hk/hrportal)
With funding assistance from an award by the Knowledge Exchange Office of the University of Hong Kong, the aim of this project is to launch a comprehensive, accessible and user-friendly website which collates human rights materials produced by CCPL, members of the HKU Faculty of Law, international human rights bodies, international and regional NGOs, governments, law-making bodies, public policy officials, academics and students. It is hoped that as this project continues to build its profile and resources the community of interest will widen and it will become a leading international web resource on human rights, particularly in relation to Hong Kong, China and Asia.
