Equality 2025's work on rights, justice and citizenship

What is Equality 2025 doing?

Members led a presentation and discussion workshop on Human Rights at Equality 2025 national public meeting in Birmingham, September 2007.

Members have also attended Scope's celebration event of the launch of the UN Convention of the Rights of People with Disabilities in March 2007

An equality 2025 member joined the Government's delegation to the UN to witness the Government signing the UN Convention of the Rights of People with Disabilities on March 30 2007.

Equality 2025 members have written a response to the Government's Green Paper, 'Discrimination Law Review - A Framework for Fairness: Proposals For A Single Equality Bill for Great Britain'.

If you would like to suggest an idea or make a comment to central Government about the above, or if you would like to talk about any other disability rights issue that you think Government could do something about, please contact us, info@equality2025.org
