More than 100 schoolgirls in Kurunegala, Sri Lanka, learned about their human rights!
On 12 August, Stichting Mission Lanka held an “Empower Her” workshop at Pannawa Muslim Central College, covering human rights, child rights, gender equality and legal protections.
Attorney N. L. A. Kalam of the Human Rights Commission of Sri Lanka provided practical education on human rights. The program was led by Stichting Mission Lanka Founder and CEO Shantha Dalugamage, with support from the Embassy of the Netherlands in Sri Lanka and Maldives.
Students received the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, provided by United for Human Rights and Youth for Human Rights International, and took action by signing the petition for human rights education.
