Education
Interested in guest speakers, seminars, lectures? Look no further!
We'll provide a free speaker (subject to some limitations) on many civil liberties and human rights topics. We do this throughout Alberta! Or we'll do a one-day seminar for a fee.
Check out our Brown Bag Lecture series. Every year we present free lunch hour lectures at the University of Calgary. Past topics have been timely! For example:
- access to information
- children's rights
- hate groups
- reproductive technology
- domestic violence
- Aboriginal rights
And for students and teachers throughout Alberta, we proudly present our Human Rights Education Project.
Research
Look to us for excellent contemporary human rights research. Examples:
- proposals for reform of human rights legislation;
- report on Alberta's compliance with the Universal Declaration on the Rights of the Child;
- report on citizen complaints about police conduct;
