Support

There two groups of people to thank for making the Lectureship such an outstanding event each year. First, our volunteers generously give their time to the event management, organization and promotion. Second, the Lectureship would not exist without the many donors who graciously support the University of Alberta Visiting Lectureship in Human Rights endowment.

With their support, both the volunteers and donors demonstrate their commitment to contribute broadly as citizens of the world by acting locally in their own community.

Volunteers

Many individuals contributed to making the Visiting Lectureship in Human Rights a successful event in the past and many continue to ensure its success in the future. We would like to thank all volunteers who have assisted us in any way and especially the committee members who were involved in planning and organizing of the Lectureship series over the years.

Donors

When this Lectureship began in 1998, a bold vision was set to raise $1,000,000, which was met. The endowment fund has a simple purpose: to assist the University in hosting the Lectureship and provide a continuing long-term source of funding.
