The Edmund Rice Centre is conducting an international human rights immersion program in January 2011 partnership with the Catholic Education Office of the Archdiocese of Sydney. This formation program for is being offered for those who seeking to explore further a faith-inspired commitment to social justice.
The immersion facilitates for participants an experience-based transformational education for justice through the engagement with the ERC's international partner organisations visited. International immersion experiences develop a new and internalised sense of our world, and of structures of inequity within it, from the perspectives of the economically excluded.
This brochure gives an initial description or overview of the immersion. More complete information will be added to this section of the ERC website within the next few days.

ERC initiative the Pacific Calling Partnership promotes awareness of the devastating effects of climate change on low-lying island communities of the Pacific. The PCP campaign goes beyond both the science and the spin to make evident 'the human face of climate change'.
Update: ERC Director, Phil Glendenning, recently returned to Australia from Afghanistan after 10 days interviewing returned asylum seekers again in Kabul.
ERC is redoubling our efforts to find a third-country resettlement option for those returnees from Australia with whom we have been able to make contact. We need financial support to achieve this.
Such work uncovers high levels of risk for the deportees (and for our researchers). Research publications are available here.
Listen to Phil speak of the visit to ABC Radio National's Phillip Adams.
