About: The Women and Life on Earth internet project began in 1999 to help connect women internationally, share information and work for ecological health and peace with justice in the new millennium. Our roots go back to an earlier Women and Life on Earth movement (see below). Since 2002 we have worked from an office in Berlin, Germany. Our non-profit association Women and Life on Earth: women in international cooperation for peace, ecology and social justice has been staffed by volunteer members and funded by contributions and project work. In 2006 we shifted our first website to a new open content format and decentralized our project work. In March 2008 we are launching our first fundraising drive to support and expand our work.

Human Rights Network AOTEAROA New Zealand

Sharing Information to pursue progress in human rights

Linked with Anthony Ravlich – New Zealand.

The HR Network (excerpt):

  • The Human Rights Network is a meeting place for New Zealanders with an interest and commitment to human rights;
  • Available social research suggests New Zealanders have a commitment to human rights, yet the human rights movement in New Zealand has been fragmented, making it difficult to share information and ideas and to mobilise to meet human rights challenges;
  • A determination to establish a network infrastructure, the Human Rights Network, came about as a result of the experience of some individuals and organisations during the 50th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in 1998, and during the debate about the future of New Zealand’s domestic human rights protections;
  • Through the Human Rights Network knowledge can be exchanged more often, news can be disseminated more widely and consultation can take place more easily. Where there is a need for collective action, mobilisation can take place with greater haste.
