This year's theme is: Dignity and justice for all of us - to celebrate the 60th Anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
Since 1987, the Australian Human Rights Commission has recognised the often extraordinary contribution to Australian society of a wide variety of men and women committed to issues of human rights, social justice and equality through the annual Human Rights Medals and Awards.
Each year they receive outstanding nominations for the Human Rights Medals and award categories - Law [sponsored by the Law Council of Australia], Community, Literature (non-fiction), Print Media, Television and Radio. They may have made an outstanding contribution within their communities or through the practice of law, through writing books about human rights issues or through their work in the media.
The 2008 winners will be announced at the Human Rights Medals and Awards luncheon ceremony to be held on Wednesday, 10 December in Sydney.
Congratulations to Accessible Arts for being named in the Shortlist for the Community category.
For the full list of nominees, please visit the 2008 Human Rights Medals and Awards shorlist.
