Description

On December 10, 1948, the United Nations adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, affirming that human rights apply to everyone, everywhere. Rights such as freedom of speech, education, and property ownership are foundational, but they are not guaranteed. Every day, these rights are violated—sometimes openly, but often hidden from view, affecting only those directly impacted.

The Human Rights Research Network (HRRN) at Ghent University aims to bring these hidden realities to light. Through this podcast, we invite listeners to explore human rights with a critical and nuanced perspective. Our episodes tackle a wide range of topics, from detention and independent living for people with disabilities to migration and climate justice.


We ask important questions: How have human rights shaped history and how can they guide our future? What connects issues like health, education, and technology to human rights? And most importantly, how do oppressed and marginalized communities experience these rights in their daily lives?


In this podcast, we amplify the voices of those whose rights have been violated, alongside the insights of researchers from Ghent University. Our goal is to make human rights accessible to all—human rights in plain language.


“Oprecht” is a podcast initiative by the Human Rights Research Network (HRRN) at UGent, created in collaboration with the podcast collective “Mensentaal”.

With the big interview behind them, Zaen and Kabuye wait for the life-changing decision that will determine their path forward. Liselot Casteleyn guides us through what happens next. We follow how the decision is communicated and learn how these are made. We also learn about the aftermath of decisions, whether receiving protection truly brings relief or if new challenges arise. The episode also explores the other side of the process: what it means to face a negative decision, and how people seeking international protection must navigate the emotional and legal aftermath.

In this episode, we finally step into the room of the big interview, guided by Liselot Casteleyn as she unpacks what actually happens there and who holds which role: from the interview officer to the interpreter and the lawyer. Through the experiences of Zaen and Kabuye, we see how the tone, questions, and interactions in this room can shape a person’s sense of safety and trust. The episode also reveals the complex dynamics between all the actors present, showing how each one can influence someone's future. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
In this episode, Liselot Casteleyn takes us into the long, uncertain stretch before the big interview, where Zaen and Kabuye navigate life in reception centres and the emotional weight of waiting. They share how they prepared for their big interview to talk about something as deeply personal as their SOGI story. Along the way, they tell us about the people who supported them: professionals, peers from the reception centers, and allies who helped them find the words and the strength to face the interview ahead.

In the first episode, doctoral researcher Liselot Casteleyn guides us into the world of SOGI-based international protection, based on her work with LGBTQ+ people navigating the Belgian asylum system. We step into the journeys of Zaen and Kabuye, two experts by experience, as they recount the moment they reached Belgium in search of safety. Their stories reveal the human side of the registration process; its hopes, hurdles, and the first encounters that shape an asylum trajectory. Hosted on Acast.

Er is één iets wat even zwaar doorweegt op alle mensen met interneringsstatuut, of ze nu in de gevangenis moeten verblijven of niet. Dat is de einddatum van hun internering: 31 december 9999. In de laatste aflevering van ‘Oprecht - Internering’ zoeken we uit wat die datum betekent voor iemand met een interneringsstatuut. En elk einde is een nieuw begin. Wat nà die interneringsmaatregel? Welke uitdagingen staan deze mensen nog te wachten als ze hun plaats in de samenleving opnieuw opnemen? There’s one thing all internees have in common, whether they remain in prison or not: the official end date of their internment order, December 31, 9999. In the latest episode of ‘Oprecht – Internment’, we explore the significance of this date for those living with an internment status. But every ending marks a new beginning. What happens after an internment order is conducted? What challenges do these individuals face as they try to reclaim their place in society?  Hosted on Acast.

In de tweede aflevering van 'Oprecht - Internering' duiken we in het Belgische zorgaanbod voor geïnterneerde personen. We doen dat samen met Joris Dheedene van de FOD Volksgezondheid en met Els Naessens van de KBM, de Kamer voor de Bescherming van de Maatschappij. We ontdekken hoe ons land omgaat met deze complexe kwestie en welke uitdagingen er spelen in de zorg voor deze groep mensen. Maar wat is dat eigenlijk, goede zorg? En hoe bereiken we dat?  In the second episode of ‘Oprecht - Internment’, we take a closer look at how Belgium provides healthcare services for internees. We’re joined by Joris Dheedene from the Federal Public Service Department of Health (FOD Volksgezondheid) and Els Naessens from the Legal Chamber for the Protection of Society (KBM). Together, we explore how the country addresses the complexities of caring for this vulnerable group and the challenges that come with it. But what exactly does "good care" mean? And how can we ensure it is provided? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
In deze aflevering legt onderzoeker Marjolein De Pau ons uit wat internering precies is. We trekken naar de gevangenis van Gent en maken er kennis met Anthony. Hij heeft een interneringsstatuut. Dankzij hem ontdekken we wat leven in de gevangenis met een mens doet. We praten er ook met Hans van het zorgteam. We ontdekken dat goede zorg niet enkel klinisch is: Het herstel van een geïnterneerde persoon heeft meerdere dimensies. Zo kunnen familie en vrienden ook een rol spelen in het herstelproces. We spreken erover met Dirk, familielid van een geïnterneerde persoon.  In this episode of Oprecht, researcher Marjolein De Pau explains what internment really means. We then visit the prison in Ghent, where we meet Anthony, who is living with an internment status. Through his story, we gain insight into the profound impact life in prison can have on a person. We also speak with Hans from the care team in prison, learning that proper care for people with an internment order goes beyond the clinical aspects. Recovery is multidimensional, family and friends play an essential role in the process. To explore this further, we have a conversation with Dirk, a family member of a person with an internment order that is located in the prison, about the importance of support from loved ones in the recovery journey.
