Our Focus

Whistleblowers make Australia a better place. By speaking up about human rights abuses, government wrongdoing and corporate misfeasance, whistleblowers play an important role in our democracy. Unfortunately, many people who do speak up face reprisal for doing so.

The Human Rights Law Centre’s Whistleblower Project is Australia’s first dedicated legal service to protect and empower whistleblowers who want to speak up about wrongdoing. We provide legal advice and representation to whistleblowers, as well as advocating for stronger legal protections and an end to the prosecution of whistleblowers. Our legal service is free and whistleblowers can contact us on a confidential basis.
