Why donate?
Every person deserves basic human rights. Yet from the treatment of people seeking asylum to the disadvantage experienced by many Indigenous people, it’s clear that there’s so much more we can do to protect human rights in Australia.
You can help protect human rights.
The Human Rights Law Centre (HRLC) does extraordinary work standing up for human rights in Australia. Its model of strategically mixing legal action, advocacy, research and capacity building is proven.
It’s also incredibly efficient – for every dollar donated, the HRLC leverages around five times that amount in pro bono work from leading law firms and barristers.
The HRLC has had many wins for human rights in Australia. They prompted and are helping to coordinate the #LetThemStay campaign that has prevented the removal of 267 vulnerable people back to Nauru and Manus Island and has seen over 90 children released from detention into the Australian community.
The HRLC also plays a leading role in tackling the crisis of Indigenous imprisonment; has successfully campaigned for laws to protect women accessing reproductive health services; and secured landmark schemes to erase unjust criminal records dating from when homosexuality was a crime.
Will you help the HRLC stand up for human rights?
The HRLC operates on a shoestring budget – 95 percent of which comes from donations from people like you who care about a fairer Australia.
They’ve got big plans for the next 12 months, but they need help to realise them.
Your support will mean HRLC can:
And so much more!
