2010 milestones
- Aung San Suu Kyi
After spending 15 of the past 21 years under house arrest, Burmese democracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi was finally released in October. We celebrated this historic moment and had the opportunity to participate in a Skype call with her. She thanked us for our work in helping to get her released and encouraged us to continue to campaign for the 2,200 political prisoners who remain in Burmese jails. - Women's rights
We stood alongside two courageous women's rights activists from Papua New Guinea, Tapora Isorua and Sarah Garap. Thanks to our support, they addressed the UN regarding the deplorable level of violence against women in their country. As a result their government committed to introducing laws to address domestic violence and providing funding for safe houses. - National Plan of Action
After six years of dedication from our supporters and partners, all levels of government finally introduced a National Plan of Action to address violence against women in February 2011.
Our goals for 2011
Looking forward to 2011, our goals are to:
- Demand Dignity for Indigenous Australians and those living in poverty around the world.
- Increase our support for the global movement.
- Respond rapidly to international crises and individuals at risk.
- Campaign for the lawful and humane treatment of refugees and asylum seekers.
- Celebrate our 50th year of human rights campaigning.
- Inspire 300,000 people to take action for human rights.
