Cumming Meeting Room

Great Decisions is America's largest discussion on world affairs. Forsyth County Public Library and the University of North Georgia (UNG) will present information and lead discussions on a range of fascinating and timely geopolitical topics selected by the Foreign Policy Association. 

This week’s topic is The Future of Human Rights and International Law.

As democracy and human rights retreat globally—and the U.S. pulls back—how can civil society and legal norms remain effective in a divided world? What is the role and force of international law in this era of impunity?

For additional information and resources on The Future of Human Rights and International Law, please visit the Foreign Policy Association website.

Great Decisions topics for 2026 include:

February 4: U.S.-China Relations

February 11: Ruptured Alliances and the Risk of Nuclear Proliferation

February 18: Ukraine and the Future of European Security

February 25: Multilateral Institutions in a Changing World Order

March 4: U.S. Engagement of Africa

March 11: The Future of Human Rights and International Law

Each discussion is open to the public and registration is not required.
