In 2008, Dignity International conducted the first South Asia Regional Linking & Learning Programme on Human Rights and Development with our partner, Tata Institute of Social Sciences. This year, the 2nd South Asia Regional Workshop aims to continue the gains made with partners since the first workshop in India.
The upcoming workshop hosted in Sri Lanka offers a new group of NGOs from all the South Asian countries another good chance to learn and reflect on HRBA in a post-conflict nation. Using the Human Rights Based Approach to Development, there will be greater possibilities of ideas for a progressive South Asia.
20 – 25 participants will be chosen to participate in this programme. This programme is open to applicants from South Asian countries only – Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Iran, Maldives, Nepal, Pakistan and Sri Lanka.

Deadline for application is on the 31ST MAY 2012, 11.59PM (GMT +8)
