BLOG

Welcome to my blog!

*you can find the latest articles below this little introduction -and all articles here.

Being both a jurist and a translator, I wanted to combine my knowledge to create this bilingual blog – the aim being to have equally qualitative articles in English and French, which is not always the case.

My wish, through this blog, it to make International Law and Human Rights Law more understandable.

I would also like to raise awareness on several issues, including climate change and business and human rights.

It will include a few “basic articles” for example on what international law is, what human rights are etc. as well as “current issues” articles, that should be published on a regular basis.

Looking forwards to your opinion, I hope you will enjoy these articles and do let me know if you would like to see an issue tackled here!

Étant à la fois une juriste et une traductrice, j’ai souhaité combiner mes connaissances dans ce blog bilingue, le but étant de créer des articles de qualité en français et en anglais.

Je souhaite, à travers ce blog, vulgariser le droit international et les droits de l’homme.

Je traiterai également de certaines problématiques d’actualité, telles que le changement climatique et l’impact des entreprises sur les droits de l’homme.

Je vais tout d’abord créer une série d’article de « base » décrivant ce qu’est le droit international, ce que sont les droits de l’homme etc. Ensuite, je souhaite publier de façon régulière des articles thématiques sur un sujet d’actualité.

J’espère que ces articles vous plairont ! N’hésitez pas à me dire ce que vous en pensez via le formulaire de contact.
