Framework client launches Human Rights Awards’ call for nominations

International Service, with whom Framework has had a number of consultancy relationships over the years, is holding its annual Human Rights Awards in York in December this year.

There are four categories open to international Human Rights activists and organisations: defence of the rights of children, of women, of people with disabilities, and defence and promotion of the right to sexual and reproductive healthcare. An innovation for the 2010 Awards is that International Service is now also calling for nominations to these categories from within Yorkshire and the Humberside. These local winners will stand alongside the international winners of each category, with the opportunities for making local – international links, increased visibility for their work, and sharing of experience and practice.

For more information, and to download the nomination forms for the Yorkshire and Humberside awards, see: http://www.internationalservice.org.uk/what_we_do/development_awareness/human_rights_awards/2010_awards_call_for_nominations.aspx

Nominations close at 5pm on 15 October 2010.
