KAL Platform
KAL Advocacy Platform
The Advocacy Platform has been formed to organise a co-ordinated approach among people interested in supporting the High Court case being taken by Drs. Katherine Zappone and Ann Louise Gilligan. The importance of this case is in establishing that Irish families today are far more diverse than provided for within legislation and State policies.
The Platform has been established to involve supporters and build a coalition of effort - to ensure that people who want to support the case can collaborate effectively together.
The Platform welcomes interested individuals to participate in activities, as well as interested organisations and groups. For those with queries or an interest in becoming involved, please contact us.
UPCOMING MEETINGS
A meeting is being planned to take place in March 2007.
Discussion is intended to focus on the outcome of the High Court challenge and how to proceed in relation to the appeal to the Supreme Court.
Please check back for full details of this meeting.
