During 2006 the Centre for Human Rights consolidated the shift of its focus of the last few years to a more explicit academic one, which culminated in the Centre becoming a fully-fl edged academic department of the Faculty of Law. It was particularly gratifying that the work of the Centre over many years was recognised by the United Nations, when the Director-General of UNESCO announced on 10 December 2006 that the Centre had won the UNESCO Prize for Human Rights Education.
