Biography

Dr Alice Trotter

Research Associate

Alice joined the Centre for Applied Human Right’s Generating Respect Hub in August 2024, as a Research Associate on the project ‘Transitional Justice and the Anthropocene’.

Alice successfully defended her PhD thesis at York Law School in July 2024. She also holds an MA in Social Research (2019-2020) and an LLM in International Human Rights Law and Practice (2017-2018), both at the University of York.

Alice’s work is very much interdisciplinary. She is building a profile of research that spans the local human rights agenda, the paradigm of transitional justice, the politics of global health, and the construction of ‘neglect’ in neglected tropical diseases.
