The Diplomacy Training Program is calling for applications for its first program focused on human rights advocacy and business. The program has been developed to assist advocates to respond to the challenges for human rights posed by the growing power and influence of corporations.
The Diplomacy Training Program is seeking applications from advocates who have an interest in learning more about the human rights responsibilities of business and how these responsibilities can inform advocacy efforts. Applications are invited from both those with experience of campaigning on corporations and those who have little or no experience, but who have the capacity to undertake advocacy on these issues in the future. Preference will be given to applicants from NGOs, and to applicants from the Asia-Pacific Region. Applications from women advocates and Indigenous Peoples advocates are encouraged. Additional information and application form can be downloaded from www.dtp.unsw.edu.au or write to actiondtp@unsw.edu.au for further information.
Application deadline: 28 July 2006
