The first Human Rights and Social Care Forum, organised by researchers at King’s College London, will take place on the 28th of June 2022 at 2 pm online with the theme: Equality, Dignity and Care Homes – The Way Forward.

In the light of the human rights situation of people in care homes in the UK and worldwide during the COVID-19 pandemic, we will explore together what lessons we have learned for human rights in care homes and what the next concrete steps are to ensure the equality and dignity of people in care homes.

The first forum will be chaired by Dr Kalpa Kharicha, Senior Research Fellow, NIHR Health & Social Care Research Unit
