[psych-hr] 12th Annual Training for Human Rights Defenders

Dear Members,

We have received the following announcement on the Annual DTP Program
from Lawyers for Human Rights and Development (LHRD) for circulation among
the members:

"As informed before the Program is a 3-week training international human rights
program scheduled to be held in Colombo in February/March 2002.  The Program
will be conducted by the Diplomacy Training Program (DTP) of the University of
NSW, Australia.  In view of concerns, expressed by participants regarding
safety of air travel (particularly over a log distance) and the safety of
Sri Lanka as the venue, many have been unable to apply before the deadline.
To ensure that the most suitable candidates receive an opportunity for
applying, the deadline for applications have been extended to 30th October
2001.

A number of possible applicants from Sri Lanka also inquired about deductions
and sponsorship of  course fees.  I am instructed by DTP to inform possible
applicants that they will be assisted in applying to funding bodies and/or
their sponsoring organisation for financial assistance.  Applications for the
program can be downloaded from
www.law.unsw.edu/centres/dtp or email for an application form from
dtp@unsw.edu.au.  If you need further information you can contact us at LHRD on
810587 or lhrd@dynaweb.lk.  The program can accommodate a maximum of 30
participants.  However, as the host country the program would be able to
accommodate more from Sri Lanka than is otherwise possible."

Please contact Ms. Lakmali Cabral of LHRD for any further information.

Thank you.
Sincerely,
Hyacinth Razack
