The walk kicks off Law Week each year, and we would love to have a large group of Monash people walking in support of human rights and justice in Victoria.<\/p>\n<p>The Walk for Justice, now in its\u00a0fourth\u00a0year, raises much needed funds for PILCH organisations and their various legal assistance schemes in Victoria, New South Wales and Queensland. This year&#8217;s Victorian Walk for Justice will\u00a0raise funds to establish a pro bono disbursement fund.\u00a0 The Castan Centre believes that this is a very worthy fundraising cause.\u00a0 The walk goes from Parliament House to the County Court, where a breakfast is served.\u00a0 The event attracts hundreds of participants each year, and this year walkers will include the Attorney General, the Shadow Attorney General and the Chief Justice of the County Court.<\/p>\n<p>The cost of walking is $10 for students and $20 for staff.\u00a0 You can either fill out the form available on the PILCH website (below) or you can drop your money to Janice Hugo (room 350) and she will organise registration for you.<\/p>\n<p>Full details of the event, and the booking form, are available at: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pilch.org.au\/walk\/\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.pilch.org.au\/walk\/<\/a><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\"><strong>6.
