One of the key roles of constitutional law is to provide a strong underpinning for human rights protections. But what role do human rights play in building robust democratic institutions?

This episode looks at these questions with expert practitioners and theorists in constitutional and human rights law.

With Kate O’Regan, Nick Barber and Richard Ekins.
