Members of SIHRG may wish to assist in short term hosting in the London area when fellows need to come down from York. Contact admin for how to apply.
SIHRG gave financial support to a member to join the mission to Guerrero region of Mexico in partnership with PBI and BHRC. His report is available HERE. Also, our missions officer received support to go to a special conference on Palestine in Switzerland and you can read his report HERE
Of great concern is the Government's threat to remove legal aid from non-residents. This could stymie the valuable work carried out brining British authorities to account as in the cases emanating from areas of Iraq that were under UK control. Do submit our opposition during the consultation process. Go to THIS LINK for further information
