[hr-education-na] Re: Mechanisms for cooperation and coordination at the national, regional and international level

I too agree with Nancy Flowers and Lynn McBrien -- people who I work with
don't realize or consider themselves as human rights educators.

I really think people need help connecting the dots.  In the Violence
Against Women's movement in the US, I continually tell people that this is
a human rights issue.  I also feel the same when talking to people in
public health.  There is a lack of awareness and for many these issues
were never brought up in their formal education.  When you have the
conversation, then there is the realization.
