Americans Working For Rights Today

Americans Working For Rights Today

HRWG, or human rights working group is a member driven grass rooted driven student of McGill law students. This summer, the members of this community are moved by their professional, advocacy and academic backgrounds in different areas of human rights. They came forward with the idea of broadening the HRWG to include four new portfolios. As a result, the working group would enter a new academic year with far more opportunities for students to engage. The problems they address are as follows - Careers, Darfur and Genocide Awareness, Equity-Access, Court Accompaniment Program, HIV-AIDS and Public Health, Immigration and Refugee, and Bursary - the Working Group will now tackle complex issues of gender, judicial institution building, police accountability and access to water.
