Let's talk on equal terms

Human Rights Talks

A platform for discussion of human rights issues. For each discussion, experts from a particular human rights field are invited to share their experience with the participants in the event.

Human Rights Talks are held in different cities of Kazakhstan.

Each city develops a different program of activities, which is selected taking into account the interests of participants.

Various topics are discussed, such as: domestic and sexual violence against women and minors, digital rights, rights of observers, irregular migration and trafficking, feminism as a value, the rights to equality and non-discrimination, the protection of workers' rights and the rights to freedom of peaceful assembly and association.

The invited speakers are women human rights activists and human rights defenders, activists, lawyers, bloggers and representatives of public foundations and associations.

Thanks to the format of the event, participants can both listen to the speakers and also enter the discussion and ask all the questions in a free and friendly atmosphere.

Human Rights Talks is an annual event of the Foundation, through which we raise awareness of human rights and promote them among the public.
