Dear Friends and colleagues,

You are invited to a screening of A Path to Dignity: The Power of Human Rights Education. This 28 minute film was produced as a tool to raise awareness about the positive role that human rights education can play in fulfilling human rights. It presents three stories illustrating the impact of human rights education respectively on school children (India), law enforcement agencies (Australia) and women victims of violence (Turkey).

The film will be followed by a panel discussion on human rights education with Elizabeth Broderick, Federal Sex Discrimination Commissioner, Vincenzo Andreacchio, Executive Officer of the South Australian Multicultural Education Committee and Mmaskepe Sejoe, Independent Consultant, Human Rights Work and Mongana Consultancies, formerly with Victoria Police and whose work is featured in the film.

This event is co-hosted by the Australian Human Rights Commission and the NSW Council for Human Rights Education. Please distribute this invitation widely among your networks.
