Beyond the Circle is organising a Training workshop on Right to Water.
I am facilitating the process. 'Beyond the Circle' is a collective of
academicians, researchers and activists who are interested in
Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (ESC Rights).
The workshop will deal with an introduction to Economic, Social and
Cultural Rights, International conventions and covenants,
constitutional guaratees/ article/laws etc. related to water and ESC
rights. and there will be a session specifically on water issues and
struggles in Kerala, from a perspective from ESC rights.
This workshop aims to equip the participants with RIGHTS perspective
to apply them in their grass root work. This will be a very rigourous
training programme. The language of lecture will be English and
discussion could be in Malayalam also.
Ms. Malavika Varthak, an independent researcher of ESC Rights from
Delhi will lead the sesssions.
The dates are 23rd to 25th, June 2006
It is going to be in Thrissur.
The exact venue is yet to be finalised.
Food and accomodation will be provided by the organisers.
It for activists, ngo workers, journalists and researchers who are
