The Human Rights and
Equalities Project is a countywide project hosted by the Eastbourne
Citizens Advice Bureau and funded by the Equalities and Human Rights
Commission. It aims to organise and deliver training sessions to develop
the capacity and understanding of voluntary organisations, frontline
workers and community representatives on various aspects of Human Rights
and Equalities.
These sessions hope to
fulfil the aim of better enabling voluntary organisations, advisors and
workers to employ human rights at work, to understand the practical
applications of Human Rights laws for themselves and their service users,
to assist clients in identifying various aspects of discrimination and to
support victims in their access to justice.
Courses are free and will
be tailored to your specific needs. We will also provide legal advice and
representation on the equality enactments to people who have been
discriminated against in the course of their employment. This service will
build on the existing partnership of the current legal advice partners in
East Sussex and will include building on work to develop access advice to
various BME communities, members of community isolated by disabilities,
older people and people from gay and lesbian communities.
