The Human Rights Project grants are available for organizations and public institutions to help them make changes so that all Albertans have the opportunity to participate in the social, cultural, political and economic life of the province without discrimination. This outcome-based program supports community projects that address needs. These grants:
- Respond to identified human rights needs and issues and can support a variety of strategies to address these needs
- Often address issues that can be complex and may require a longer-term strategy to achieve change
- Assist non-profit organizations and public institutions to address the intersection of human rights with issues such as social exclusion, inequality of opportunity, discrimination, racism or other barriers that limit Albertans’ ability to be full and contributing citizens
