Free and equal NTEU’s submission to the AHRC’s proposal for a national Human Rights Framework In 2019, the Australian Human Rights Commission (AHRC) launched a series of papers, supported by a national conference and community roundtables, proposing the establishment of a national human rights framework. Promoted as being a ‘National Conversation’, the AHRC’s consultation was intended to identify what principles and key elements would make up an effective system of human rights protections, on a national level. The findings of the review would then inform what the AHRC described as 'a comprehensive reform agenda to modernise human rights protection for all.'
