Human rights belong to everyone. The Human Rights Law Resource Centre (HRLRC) has compiled a number of case studies from Victoria, the ACT and the UK which demonstrate that human rights are not just for lawyers, celebrities and criminals; they are an important tool that can help create a more just society where everyone receives a fair go.

These case studies illustrate how human rights laws can be used to encourage common-sense policies and decisions that promote human dignity and addresses disadvantage.  For more details please follow this link to the HRLRC website.
