Analysis of performance
Human rights education is a mandated function of
the Commission and an important way it supports
better understanding of, and respect for human
rights in Australia. This function remains seriously
underfunded, with most of this work having to be
conducted on a cost-recovery basis to fund the staff
working on workplace and community education.
