Ongoing Trainings for Community Leaders


Ongoing local and national trainings are tailored to both assist and incorporate communities in analyzing, documenting and implementing human rights standards and further develop existing human rights strategies to remain relevant to women, including young women, in the rapidly changing political and economic climate.


San Francisco/Bay Area


WILD for Human Rights will train community leaders especially women, on human rights advocacy so that they will hold central decision making roles in the campaign to pass the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (ICESCR) and the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights in San Francisco (ICCPR). This will ensure that communities are not forced to pick their right to health care over their ability to have a safe home, or to prioritize gender over race and other identities.


Nationally


WILD for Human Rights provides ongoing technical assistance to organizations, foundations and community groups across the country to help them integrate a human rights lens into their work and infrastructure as well as to assist efforts to pass human rights legislation such as Convention for the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW) in their cities. WILD has assisted New York, Los Angeles and Seattle in their ongoing efforts to pass CEDAW.
