Dr Jastine Barrett
Human Rights Consultant. International Lawyer. Academic.
Thank you for visiting my website!
I am Jastine, and I have been working in the human rights area for over 15 years and have been a qualified lawyer for more than two decades.
I offer specialised research and writing services across all areas of human rights law and policy, partnering with international organisations, NGOs, and academic institutions. While I have a deep passion for children’s rights, my expertise spans a broad range of human rights issues, and I am dedicated to conducting research - including fieldwork - to provide tailored insights to inform decision-making, policy and programme development, and advocacy interventions.
As an experienced lecturer and trainer, I enjoy sharing knowledge and skills with future and current human rights practitioners, helping them deepen their understanding and enhance their capacity to work effectively in the field. From facilitating impactful workshops to leading educational programmes, I am committed to empowering the next generation of human rights defenders.
I also provide professional proofreading and editing services to enhance the clarity and impact of written work. Whether it's refining complex human rights reports, advocacy interventions, journal articles or PhD theses, I ensure the message is delivered with precision, coherence and clarity. With a keen eye for detail and a deep understanding of human rights discourse, I ensure that written material meets the highest academic and professional standards.
