No matter who we are, we all deserve to be treated with dignity and respect by our government.
The Human Rights Act would embed these values into public life in Australia by making the government accountable for protecting our rights.
WK is a proud signatory to the campaign for a national Human Rights Act and has been assisting the Human Rights Law Centre with drafting factsheets, starting with:
Privacy | Migrants | Older people
Children | LGBTIQ+ | People with a disability
This helps raise awareness of how the human rights frameworks in Victoria, Queensland and the ACT are making a difference to people’s lives, and demonstrate why a Human Rights Act is needed at a national level.
