ERI Short Course on advocacy and Human Rights – Geneva

Both Ann and Shannon recently completed a 3-day course with ERI in Geneva. This was very impactful. It filled in many gaps on the UN mechanisms and processes. We were able to visit the Human Rights Council and see a Treaty Body (Rights of the Child – Ireland review) in action. Meeting with the other participants was also very useful. We have all the resources from the sessions which are also very useful. Thanks to this training and the on-going support form ERI I feel I can engage the students in the UN processes – thus the Child Rights submission from year 6 children at Runnymede
