Funded Activity Summary

Strengthening the Human Rights Focus of Anti-Discrimination Law and Practice. Australian anti-discrimination legislation aims to promote and protect human rights, but its impact has been limited by reliance on private, individualised complaint-handling processes, and by the limited capacity of anti-discrimination agencies to engage in broader inquiries or litigation strategies. This project will determine how to maximise awareness and protection of human rights through the discrimination complaint-handling process, the management of anti-discrimination litigation, and/or the use of other agency functions and powers. By incorporating both the conciliation and litigation aspects of anti-discrimination procedures, systematically examining international models, and involving one of the anti-discrimination agencies as industry partner, the project is designed to contribute significantly to the implementation of human rights in Australia.
