Training

HCH provides training opportunities for diaspora organisations promoting human rights in places of war and conflict. This includes relevant training from external sources and specifically designed workshops coordinated by HCH.

These sessions combine theory and practical so participants can build their activism skills.  They also provide an open space for collaboration and networking with other community organisations. 

Workshops are facilitated by people who have specialised knowledge, often through first-hand experience of conflict, and offer real-world advice about how to find practical support and resources in Australia.

 

From time to time, HCH will also advertise training opportunities provided by external organisations that might benefit community organisations, these are listed below.
