About THRE's Connectors Network

THRE's Connectors are the link between THRE and their organisation and help THRE to connect with their organisation and to the people and organisations they work with. They are interested in the issues, ideas and conversations around human rights and equalities, and are keen to help more third-sector organisations know about and start to take a human rights and equalities first approach. THRE Connectors receive:

 

  • THRE Connectors network: quarterly online connectors meetings hosted by THRE where connectors can network, hear from each other as well as the THRE team and specialist guests.
  • THRE information and signposting support: Connectors can contact the THRE team with human rights and equalities related questions on behalf of their organisation or the organisations they work with and access the THRE team’s experience and expertise, resources, and signposting to expert organisations.
  • Connectors newsletter: featuring selected info-sheets and resources to share with your organisation before they are launched publicly.
  • Access to fully booked THRE courses: if a course is fully booked, we will where possible increase the capacity to allow connectors to attend, by up to five additional places
