Thomas J. Dodd Prize
in International Justice and Human Rights
The Thomas J. Dodd Prize in International Justice and Human Rights is
awarded biannually by the University of Connecticut to an individual or
group who has made a significant effort to advance the cause of international
justice and global human rights.
The Dodd Prize commemorates the distinguished career in public service of
Thomas J. Dodd who, as Executive Trial Counsel at the Nuremberg Trials and
a Connecticut Senator from 1959 to 1971, fought against infringement and
suppression of human rights in the United States and abroad.
On October 5, 2009, the University of Connecticut will be awarding the Fourth
