Advocacy

HT’s role in advocacy aims at influencing policy making at all levels -- national and local -- in its interactions with governmental and other independent decision making bodies. HT takes legal action on issues involving environmental and human rights, sponsors and initiates public debate and discussion on matters that significantly affect the country’s environmental stability and well being of those adversely affected by inappropriate developmental policies.
