The second edition of Setting up a Human Rights Film Festival is an "a to z" guide on the how-to's of organizing a human rights film festival. Written by festival organizers from around the world, the second edition of Setting up a Human Rights Film Festival focuses on the needs and challenges of festivals that are sprouting all over the developing world and those in countries where democratic systems are still emergent or non-existent.
