The Importance of International Human Rights Law

Blinne Ní Ghrálaigh in conversation with Donncha O’Connell

Blinne Ní Ghrálaigh, a barrister with Matrix Chambers, London, became internationally known to a wide audience when she presented part of South Africa’s recent case alleging genocide by Israel in the Gaza Strip.

In the light of the conflicts in Ukraine and Gaza, human rights law has become hugely important as a means of addressing these human tragedies and providing hope for a better future. Blinne was in conversation with Donncha O’Connell, Professor of Law at University of Galway and a respected human rights law expert.
