colleagues, <BR><BR>Making human rights real: Equalinrights' interactive
database of resource persons is active and waiting for your call!
<BR><BR>Equalinrights proudly presents the activation of its database of
resource persons! We invite organisations to have a look at <A
href="http://www.equalinrights.org/content/partners.html"
eudora="autourl">http://www.equalinrights.org/content/partners.html</A> and
register for free login. <BR><BR>What is the database about?
<BR><BR>Equalinrights created the database as a response to a serious gap in
knowledge and understanding of the human rights-based approach (HRBA). By
creating a database of skilled resource persons who have a profound knowledge of
human rights, poverty issues and human rights-based strategies, equalinrights
aims to support NGOs and civil society groups that could make use of this
expertise through trainings, consultancies, the development of training material
and much more. By gathering highly skilled experts on a personal basis,
equalinrights has made a selection of resource persons, predominantly from the
South and with good grassroots experience that could make a great contribution
to your struggle for a more just and equal society. <BR><BR>Join, why?
<BR><BR>Equalinrights profoundly believes in upstream efforts. The main goal of
the database consists of the support for grassroots organizations, NGOs and
civil society groups that could advance their struggle against poverty by
applying a human rights framework in their strategies. By searching the
database, resource persons can be found on their areas of expertise and their
geographical focuses. With knowledge of local cultures and languages,
equalinrights will provide you with experts that can truly contribute to your
efforts. Even when the person you are looking for is not listed in the database,
equalinrights will be at your service to personally find the support you need.
Furthermore, equalinrights can provide support in the covering of financial
needs for the use of resource persons, trainings and consultancies through
<BR>different means.<BR><BR>Join, how? <BR><BR>As equalinrights pays a high
value to confidentiality and quality, the database is only available by login.
If you are interested in joining, please send an email to info@equalinrights.org
with the name, contact details and a short description of your organisation.
Please explain briefly how you think we can be of your <BR>service, in this way
