That training helped us understand the significance of having practical knowledge on human rights advocacy for a country like Myanmar. DTP made us realise that even though we all live abroad, we have certain leverage, and we should use it thoughtfully and in an organised way to help push for change in Myanmar using international mechanisms.
This program supports community advocates from diaspora communities in their advocacy for human rights, peace and democracy. From 1990, DTP supported the Timorese diaspora in Australia. Since then, it has provided practical training to diaspora communities advocates from Tibet, Burma/Myanmar, Nepal and West Papua.
DTP’s diaspora programs build understanding of international law and relations, build skills in advocacy and building solidarity and provide a neutral space to come together to build networks and support.
DTP acknowledges the traditional custodians of the land on which we work, the Bedegal people of the Eora Nation. We recognise their lands were never ceded, and we acknowledge their struggles for recognition and rights and pay our respects to the Elders – past, present – and the youth who are working towards a brighter tomorrow. This continent always was and always will be Aboriginal land.
