Diplomacy Training Program Building human rights capacity in Asia and the Pacific

The Diplomacy Training Program (DTP) is an independent NGO which seeks to advance human rights and empower civil society in the Asia Pacific region through quality education and training, and the building of skills and capacity in non-governmental organisations and for individual human rights defenders and community advocates. The DTP was founded in 1989 by HE José Ramos-Horta, 1996 Nobel Peace Laureate and former President of Timor-Leste, and Emeritus Professor Garth Nettheim.

What an extraordinary moment for the 34th Annual Human Rights and Diplomacy Training Program in Timor-Leste. We were deeply honoured to be the guests of DTP’s Founder and Patron, H.E. President José Ramos-Horta, who hosted the 26 participating human rights defenders from 16 countries for lunch. The President generously spent over two hours sharing lessons from Timor-Leste's path to independence and among the top ten of world democracies and contemporary global challenges for human rights, leaving each participant with hope and strategies to bring back to their own fight for human rights.
