All Our Rights in Law - a Conversation with HRC Scotland
Event Information
About this Event
A National Taskforce is putting together recommendations to the Scottish Government for a new human rights law. This law would build on existing human rights laws to strengthen how all our rights are protected. It will include things like the right to housing, to food and to health. It will include rights for particular groups such as women.
Find out more about what might be in this law at: allourrightsinlaw.scot
We really want to hear what YOU think about how a new human rights law might help you, and your family and community.
What needs to be in the law? How should it be put into practice? What do you want to tell the National Taskforce?
Come along to one of these interactive online sessions to find out more. The sessions are open to anyone who is interested.
And then what?
We are holding lots of conversations about this new law over the next 3 months. We will then collate all of the views together to help inform the National Taskforce’s final recommendations. We'll also publish a report of people’s views, to help inform the next stage when the draft law is being written.
If you take part in this conversation, we'll ask you if you want to be sent this report & keep in touch with what happens next.
Want to also join in an informal, interactive & fun event for Human Rights Day? Following our discussion on the 10th December (5-6pm), we will run a separate, less formal event (6-7:30pm) which will provide an opportunity to reflect on human rights in the past, and share our hopes for the future.
