The John Humphrey Centre’s Stride Advocacy is hosting a three-day no-cost, intensive human rights advocacy training workshop from April 17-19, 2024 at Providence Renewal Centre (3005 119 Street NW) in Edmonton.

The training provides opportunities for advocates to strengthen their awareness and understanding of human rights and discrimination, network with other advocates and organizations, and build skills to advance the rights of traditionally marginalized community members using the human rights mechanisms that exist for accountability. 

Training will run from 10 am - 4:30 pm each day.
