                                          ABOUT APHRN

The Asia Pacific Human Rights Network (APHRN) is a network of human rights organisations and individual activists across the Asia Pacific region.  APHRN seeks to address trans-Asia Pacific human rights issues in an effective manner by developing formal relationships with its individual and organisational members and increasing cooperation to address such issues.

 The Secretariat of the APHRN assists the members by:

• supplying accurate and timely information on national human rights institutions, the United Nations and its specialised agencies,

• campaigning and lobbying on country situations and individual cases,

• providing relevant training to human rights activists on the use of national and international norms and procedures, and

• providing legal, political and practical advice according to the needs of individual NGOs.

APHRN undertakes research projects and provides input on international human rights standards and procedures.  The organisation’s entire programme of activities is carried out on the basis of the needs of its members and from the recommendations of extensive consultation with its members.

APHRN offers three types of membership:

• Full membership for Organisations

• Associate membership for Organisations

• Individual membership, both Associate and full

Full membership both at the individual and the organisational level to the Asia Pacific Human Rights Network is offered by invitation only. Human rights groups accepting membership (full members, associate members and individual members) must be able and willing to take up individual cases to be redressed and must pay a membership fee of US$ 100 per annum for organisations and US$ 50 for individuals.  Membership fees can also be paid in kind by making a commitment in work hours for each year.  Individuals will need to contribute 50 work hours per year.  Organisations will need to contribute 100 work hours per year.
