SEEKING FUNDS FOR ESTABLISHING A HUMAN RIGHTS HOUSE (KENYA)
Hello
My name is Hilda Mawanda and I am currently coordinating a group of
organisations that seek to form a Human Rights House in Kenya. The
organisations are diverse, but all deal with human rights issues eg
women's issues, children's issues, research and advocacy.
Kindly inform me of any donors that are willing to support the
construction of such a facility. We have already approached some
embassies in Kenya and have received strong interest in the project.
However, since the initial investment budget is high, we are looking
into expanding the pool of donors so as to realise the house. The house,
though occupied by approximately seven organisations at one time, will
be used for the promotion of human rights in Kenya as a whole.
Sincerely,
Hilda Mawanda
Coordinator, Interim Board of the Human Rights House,
and Programs Administrator, Coalition on Violence Against Women

LOOKING FOR MODELS OF CULTURAL COMPETENCE TRAINING FOR POLICE OFFICERS
Dear All of the members,
Hello, how are you? My name is Sung Hyun Yun. I work at the Center for Pan
Asian Community Services (CPACS), Inc. Atlanta, GA. CPACS plans to make a
cultural competence training for police officers to improve their
understanding of Asian Americans. I will cover Asian American / refugee and
immigrant issues on domestic violence in the training. If you know any
model program, I would like to get the information. Thanks
