He has been a Visiting Scholar at the Legal Research Institute at the National Autonomous University of Mexico, and a lecturer at several universities and institutes in Mexico, Colombia, Ecuador and Costa Rica. He is the author of the book "The Doctrine of Conventionality Control: Between Uniformity and Legal Pluralism in the Inter-American Human Rights System", published by Intersentia.
Dr González Domínguez gave our audience an overview of how the Inter-American Court of Human Rights works, and in particular discussed the importance of pro bono representation for victims at the Court, as well as the assistance provided to the Court from NGOs and academic institutions.
