Human Rights Committee

The GGEA Human Rights Committee advocates equity in all aspects of GGEA activities. The committee engages staff, members and the public in Human Rights and social justice activities designed to empower all public school children and educate teachers and students to accept different cultures and sexual orientations, thus promoting understanding and tolerance of all differences.

    • A quality education for all students
