Links

Hello,

Just a little update. My name is Jane Simmons and I am the person in Durham, England who is organising the project in February. I am really looking forward to it, and to meeting you all, so starting to put this weblog together is exciting for me. I hope you are all starting to think about the visit you'll be making soon and to look forward to the week we'll spend together.

As for the blog, I have started to put some links up on the right hand side this morning. I have put them in several categories so far: general equality issues; local groups in and around Durham; Race Equality Issues; Sexual Orientation Equality Concerns; Age Discrimination Questions and Problems with Age Discrimination. I am also going to try and add some links to sites discussing gender discrimination and unfair treatment on the grounds of disabilities. I have chosen these topics as they are some of the major issues confronting those fighting for equality, and because they relate to some of the topics we will be looking at in February. However, if there are themes you would like to see represented in this blog, do write to me (at) and I will be happy to add them to the list. Also, if you find useful internet sites on the above topics while you are doing your preparation for the visit, send me the links and I will add them to my lists. They can be in your language, not just English if you think that they are helpful.

Hope this helps and look forward to hearing from you all soon,

Jane
