He is co-director emeritus of the Zehr Institute for Restorative Justice<\/a>, and distinguished professor of restorative justice at Eastern Mennonite University\u2019s Center for Justice and Peacebuilding<\/a>.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Zehr will speak on \u201cHuman Rights Meets Restorative Justice,\u201d examining some of the modern-day challenges of enforcing human rights and how the legal system can contribute to injustice.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The lecture is especially appropriate considering the strong ties between CJP and S-CAR. Three long-term faculty members Lisa Schirch, Barry Hart and Gloria Rhodes, as well as CJP Executive Director Jayne Docherty (also a long-term faculty member) earned their doctorates at S-CAR and several CJP graduates are continuing their doctoral studies at George Mason.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Previous Lynch speakers include John Paul Lederach, the co-founder and first director of CJP; the president of Malta, Marie-Louise Coleiro Preca; and Paul Butler, a professor at Georgetown Law in Washington D.C. and former federal prosecutor.
