We’re excited to be celebrating our recent win at the UK Blog Awards (and our second birthday) by hosting our first “RightsInfo presents…” event – and we’d love you to join us!

In association with Free Word, the evening will be hosted by RightsInfo CEO Julia Kirby-Smith. It will also feature a discussion between BuzzFeed’s James Ball and RightsInfo founder Adam Wagner, RightsInfo presents ‘Human rights, fake news and echo chambers: Is there some kind of way out of here?’

We are thrilled to be bringing together lawyers, journalists, and human rights influencers to help find some positive ways to move forward with human rights dialogue in the UK.

The event will take place from 6pm on Thursday 4th May and we’re pleased to have 50 tickets to give to RightsInfo supporters, as a thank you to the amazing community who engage with and share our content.

Tickets will be distributed on a first-come-first-served, so do book your ticket ASAP to join the guest list and join us next week!
