Awareness Raising and Strengthening Organisational Structures<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Human Rights Awareness<\/strong><\/p>\n

ASK mobilises youth volunteers to form functional community based human rights theatre groups. These groups use cultural tools including action theatre to ensure live interaction of the community people. They operate through three-tier committee and organise annual theatre festival at the local and national level.<\/p>\n

Gender and Social Justice<\/strong><\/p>\n

In collaboration with the partners, ASK facilitates community activism to promote human rights and gender equality. It provides technical support to the community based human rights protection group, community based women\u2019s group and human rights lawyers forum. These groups function through elected central committee who organise human rights conference.<\/p>\n
