About this event

THRE in collaboration with Engage Renfrewshire are hosting an in-person workshop session on human rights and equalities for organisations in the West of Scotland. This is an in-person event featuring expert guest speakers to explore how we can apply a Human Rights and Equalities First approach to the sector's work.

What we will cover:

• To learn about human rights and equalities – what they are and why they matter
• To understand how human rights and equalities are relevant to the work of local third sector organisations

We will be announcing our guest speakers shortly.
