Comments from Human Rights Training Seminars Participants

"What is important for me, what makes me satisfied, is the initiative NCHR has taken to organize a seminar in which I can leave with my head full of ideas, and have my consciousness raised regarding human rights. I learned many, many things during those three days, and I want to thank you very much. What I want more than anything is for NCHR to organize another human rights seminar. Everything went well, however, three days isn't enough time for a seminar such as this. I learned too many things." Joseph Jéthro Michel, Association of Young Peasants of Plaisance

"The seminar was well done. It shed much light on a subject we did not know much about, and we found it very interesting....Everyone from the NCHR staff spoke well with me. I wish NCHR good luck and hope you will organize more human rights seminars for people living in the provinces." Germaine Bataille, Les Cayes

"I learned many things that my heart did not know, thanks to NCHR. My consciousness has been raised, and now I can take what I learned and use it back home." Joseph Armand, Pont-Sondé, POPPS

"I liked how they answered each question with seriousness and patience....my heart hopes that NCHR will continue to do other seminars, because I would still like to learn more about human rights." Berta Jean Cadet, Thomazeau.

"What we wish is, we would like to see another seminar to advance our consciousness of human rights even more." Members of RPP.

"I was very satisfied with the seminar, because I learned so many things. Even if I went to school, I would not have learned more than I did here about human rights. I wish you would do another seminar on the question of human rights in our society." Emanie Joseph, Female Resistance Organization.

"On the first day of the seminar, I was very impressed with Bill O'Neill's presentation of human rights and international law. After this we had Anne Fuller, and it is clear that she is a specialist in the field of human rights. We also heard from lawyer Camille Leblanc, who gave a very strong presentation." Kénol Andris, Dame Marie

"I was very pleased with the participation of the majority of the students, who asked questions when they didn't understand. I hope NCHR continues to do seminars for members of popular organizations so that we can become specialists in human rights that can cover the entire country." anonymous
