Awards and Grants

Each year HRE USA recognizes innovation and leadership in Human Rights Education through their award and grant opportunities.

Edward O’Brien Award

The Flowers Fund Grant

A fund created in honor of Nancy Flowers to continue her legacy of innovation and mentorship in human rights education.

HRE USA is a project of the Center for Transformative Action

The core values of HRE USA and its partner organizations include transparency and critical thinking skills. We believe that human rights--and human rights education--belong to everyone, and that the full realization of human rights means that access to human rights education materials must never be conditioned upon the subscription to any particular religious faith, ideology, political affiliation, or membership in any particular organization and that any organizational connections should be openly acknowledged.
