The University of Dayton Human Rights Center is facilitating and hosting with community partners a pair of free workshops to help Dayton residents understand their human rights.

"Although the Universal Declaration of Human Rights is not new, many people are unaware of their fundamental rights as human beings," said Shelley Inglis, University of Dayton Human Rights Center executive director. "In addition to helping residents understand their human rights, we are seeking their input on how Dayton can become a 'Human Rights City,' a more engaged civic society working in partnership with city officials to become a 'Human Rights City' that uses a human rights lens to develop policies and practices."

The first session is 6 to 8 p.m. Thursday at the Dayton Metro Library - Northwest Branch, 2410 Philadelphia Drive, Dayton, Ohio, 45406.

The second session is 10 a.m. to noon Saturday, March 11, at the University of Dayton Human Rights Center on the third floor of Keller Hall. Parking is available in P Lot adjacent to the Frericks Center off College Park Drive. 

For questions or to RSVP, email hrc@udayton.edu or call 937-229-3294.  

Community partners include Mary Tyler Consulting, The Collaboratory, and the City of Dayton Human Relations Council.

For more information or interviews, contact Shawn Robinson, associate director of news and communications, at 937-229-3391 or srobinson@udayton.edu.
