Nominations are now open for the 2013 Human Rights Awards and close on the 27 September 2013.

The Australian Human Rights Commission encourages nominations from individuals who have contributed to human rights in Australia. The aim is to recognise people who are working to achieve better human rights outcomes in their work or community.

Some nominees are well known, but most are just ordinary people making a difference to human rights. The best nominees are often the people who wouldn’t dream of putting themselves forward, which is why we need you to do it for them!

Nominees are entered in either general or media categories. General categories include the Human Rights Medal, Young People’s Human Rights Medal, Law, Business, Community (Individual), Community (Organisation). Media categories include Literature (non-fiction) Print and Online Media, Radio and Television.

This year the Awards will be held at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Sydney on Tuesday 10 December 2013.

Nomination forms for the 2013 Human Rights Awards are available here.
