Thematic Position Papers

Dated – 24th August 2009

Dear Friends,

Solidarity Centre has been established by the Trust Solidarity for Peace in the recent days. The vision is to create an institution which builds understanding, interventions and alliances on various themes relevant to the social-political lives of the people, human rights being the basis.

Towards this effort we have decided upon the following:

  1. To prepare Position Papers on the following themes
    1. Gender and Social Inclusion
    2. Community Health
    3. Labour and Livelihoods
    4. Democracy and Rights
    5. Media and Communications
    6. Arts and Culture
  2. To organize a two day seminar in the month of February 2010, in which the papers will be presented for feedback.

As the efforts towards preparation of this work are voluntary, self initiated and self resourced, we call towards your valued contribution in the preparation of the same.

The theme papers will comprise of the situational analysis of the theme and our position on it based on the rights and empowerment perspective. These will be approximately of 15 pages, to be completed by December 2009.

We intend to take these documents forward in the future years as base paper, and hence take it as an important process, towards building social analysis.

You may contribute by being part of the Working Group on any or more particular themes, and writing, communicating your ideas, organizing thematic meets or making financial contribution to the process.
