Invitation for First Lecture Tour on "Access to Justice and Public Empowerment"


Subject: Invitation for First Lecture Tour on "Access to Justice and Public Empowerment", on November 29th 2007 starting at 8.30am to 12.00pm at the University of Cambodia
Dear all friends,
We are pleased to invite you and your representative to join to the Lecture Tour on "Access to Justice and Public Empowerment", organized by the Cambodian Center for Human Rights (CCHR) in partnership with the Asia-Europe Foundation based in Singapore, on Thursday November 29th 2007 at the University of Cambodia (#143-145, Preah Norodom Boulevard) . The Lecture Tour will be delivered by Mr Pavol Zilincik from VIA URIS (Center for Public Advocacy), Slovakia.
 
The ASEF Lecture Tours programme was conceptualised to bring "leaders of opinion" from each region to tour the opposite region, delivering lectures at between 4-7 institutions and cities. The Lecture Tour presents a unique opportunity for audiences and institutions in both Asia and Europe to meet and confer with Mr Zilincik who has have had direct experience in this topic. In doing so, the lecture tour will:
 
·          Provide a platform for audiences in Asia to address an Asian-European panel
·          Provide an opportunity for both Asian and European perspectives to be aired simultaneously and thereby encourage partners and audiences to address this issue from a bi-regional perspective
·          Draw in ASEF alumni in each partner country as well as the general public to an open discussion and forum.
 
It is the first Lecture Tour under the Asia-Europe Democratisation and Justice Series to engage in exploring differences, similarities and challenges of the democratisation processes, particularly in countries undergoing political transition in Asia and Europe. Therefore, we deeply hope that you and your nominee will attend the above program.
 
Should you require any further information regarding the lecture tour programme, please do not hesitate to contact us at 023 726 901 or Ms. Chak Sopheap at chaksopheap@cchr-cambodia.org.
