Hi
Lakshan,
Just checking in
again. I am a bit worried that the price of the ticket
will
go up if we wait too long and our budget is very tight
so
please send me a quote as soon as possible or we may only
be
able to reimburse up to the amount that the other
participants paid for their tickets.
Hope all is well!

Dear Lakshan,
Thank you for your interest in joining the
Access to Justice: Case Analysis and Documentation
Workshop.
It was great getting to talk to you while we were
in
Sri
Lanka.
We have now heard back from all invited
organisations. Most of our colleagues seem to
prefer
the
31
July- 3 August slot; in fact several of them
can’t
join
the workshop if we have it after 4 August.
We have decided therefore to hold the Case
Analysis and Documentation Workshop from 31 July
through
3
August. We expect participants to arrive by 30 July
or
in
exceptional cases early in the morning of 31 July.
You
can
plan to leave late at night on 3 August or on 4
August.
Twin
share rooms would be booked for you for 4 or 5
nights,
depending on your flight schedule.
We will send more detailed information about
booking flights and the venue later this month.
Right
now,
may I request you to please register your chosen
representative for the workshop by filling out the
following
form:
http://goo.gl/forms/1wH2tHkIFT (In
case you have problems with the form, do let me
know.) Since you are not
representing an organisation, feel free to ignore
the
questions for the organisation contact.
A little information about the AtJ
Team:At the moment the Access to Justice team
of GAATW-IS comprises myself and two legal interns,
Katya
and Marie-France. All three of us have begun our
work
at
the
IS in May and are looking forward to this workshop
and
working closely with you after it. Once we have the
registration forms, we will start preparatory
communication
with the participants. After the workshop we will
follow-up
on the action plans created during the workshop.
Please
note
that the key goal of this workshop is to
collaboratively
develop simple tools that legal aid providing
organisations,
such as yours, can use to identify trafficking
cases
that
occur in the context of labour migration. We are
hoping
that
the tool/s we develop together, will make your
regular
work
with migrant workers stronger in general and it
will
add
value to your work on Access to Justice work in
particular. For your reference, I
have attached the concept note for the workshop and
will
send a tentative agenda and orientation materials
leading
up
to the workshop soon.
