Freilich Project for the Study of Bigotry
The Herbert and Valmae Freilich Project for the Study of Bigotry is a philanthropically funded, interdisciplinary research centre based at The Australian National University. The Project supports research into the causes, histories and effects of ethnic, cultural, religious, and sexual bigotry and animosity. It promotes public discussion on how such intolerance can be combatted and how co-existence can be promoted through social, research and educational programs.
Highlights
We are citizens of the world and it’s our duty to combat racism, fight for equality and make everyone feel that they belong, that they matter and that ...we are equal, we are human beings ….that we bleed the same!
- Liz Deep-Jones, Journalist
