The World Tour Team left Indonesia in a blaze of human rights advancement! As the event hosted by the Ministry of Law and Human Rights of Indonesia came to a close, the team were whisked off to the airport for the next stop on the World Tour. It was difficult to exit for the President of Youth for Human Rights International, Mary Shuttleworth, as the demand from event attendees to support and work with YHRI toward human rights education for all Indonesian children was unrelenting. And that was just what she came for: to create a surge of activity and partnerships toward the common purpose of human rights education. Fait accompli!
The team, consisting of videographer Jett Evans, photographer and administrative assistant Michele Kirkland and Mary Shuttleworth arrived on the 7th to a diplomatic escort directly through airport stations. That night a dinner in their honor introduced the President of YHRI to dignitaries and her YHRI-Indonesia team.
Day after day: meetings with government ministers, events, teaching human rights at a boys prison, bringing inspiration to children in an orphanage, working with the incredible YHRI-Indonesia team, last minute race to a TV studio—the excitement didn’t stop!
