Dear Colleagues,

HREA is calling for applications for a series of new short certificate courses via e-learning. These short e-learning courses are six weeks in duration and involve approximately 30 hours of reading, interaction with students and instructor on discussion boards, and "webinars" with invited guests. The courses are offered in collaboration with Amnesty International, The Right to Education Project, Transparency International, the University for Peace Human Rights Centre, and War Child Holland.

We are issuing a call for applications for the following short certificate courses:

Environment and Human Rights (20 October-30 November 2010)

Health and Human Rights (18 October-28 November 2010)

Housing Rights are Human Rights (6 October-16 November 2010)

International Refugee Law and Contemporary Challenges (11 October-21 November 2010)

The Rights of Persons with Disabilities (4 October-14 November 2010)

Application deadline for the courses is 1 September 2010. However, applications will be considered on a first-come-first-served basis. For further information about each course and on-line application, please click on the course links above.
