Free Debate were once again involved in the broader
leadership program run by the Australian Muslim Women’s Centre for Human Rights
(AMWCHR). Working within a context of a broader program aimed at empowering
young Lebanese Alawites, participants worked in small groups with trainers, receiving
individual feedback on speeches after a lengthy discussion on high impact
manner. Speech topics focused around change in the community, with participants
choosing to speak on topics ranging from the Pharmaceutical Benefit Scheme to
residency status rights. Trainers were thrilled to return to the centre, and
look forward to working with the AMWCHR soon!
