I am pleased to share with you the enclosed application form along with a letter of invite which is self explanatory. This is with regard to the ‘Training of Trainers’ on Human Rights Defenders and their Rights and Responsibilities. We have already had one such TOT in Bangalore in the last week of February which has just now concluded. I am aware that you may like to send a senior colleague of yours from each state who is a trainer for this program so that he / she would be able to conduct the training for others in the state collectively later for which also resources will be provided by us. The states envisaged for this training are J&K, Himachal Pradesh, Punjab, Haryana, Rajasthan, Gujarat, Maharashtra, MP, Chattishgargh, Bihar, Jharkhand, Uttaranchal, UP and Delhi. Here is an opportunity that you will not want to lose and hence this special mail to you. This training will leave your organization with one trained person to be able to take forward this program for HRDs within your own agenda for many more organizations, movements and trade unions. Can I have a positive response from you. I will like to know from you how many seats and how many of them would be women ? With affectionate regards and best wishes, Henri Tiphagne *February 26, 2010* Dear Mr. Pushkar Raj, Greetings from People's Watch, CHRI, NAWO, MARG and Ekta Parishad! *Sub :* *People's Watch - Human Rights Defenders Desk - Invitation to be part of a Participatory Learning Workshop with Trainers – Lucknow – 11th to 13th April 2010- Regarding* I take great pleasure in inviting you to be a participant in a Participatory Learning Workshop with Trainers of Human Rights Defenders that People's Watch is conducting, supported by the Royal Netherlands Embassy.
