In the retained research it develops rights-based proposals for digital regulation, receives disclosed support for expert coordination and advocate training, and is named as a partner in Reset.Tech Australia’s transparency advocacy.
The funded work and its public route
Mannifera’s 2024 grant listing records $60,000 for aligning legal and technical expertise on misinformation, online-safety and privacy reform and training advocates. The currency code and cash receipt were not established in that listing. HRLC’s Rights-First work and its reported October 2024 parliamentary engagement are identifiable outputs and access routes, distinct from proof that government adopted its recommendations.
