The programme is open to continuous applications from all Australian universities to enter the participant network. The NHRP encourages research cooperation across universities and internationally and develops research capacity by supporting postgraduate researchers, post-doctrinals and young scientists, including indigenous scientists and researchers. NHRP research funding is provided through a competitive annual funding cycle based on the absolute value of demand. The NHRP establishes a database for applied practical research to support policy development and adds new knowledge on housing studies and related disciplines. The CRNN`s research program is updated annually to show the way forward in the development of this database and to set priorities for the annual funding cycle. The research programme is developed in consultation with the AHURI Limited Board, the Chief Executives of the Government, the Australian Government, the relevant state and territory governments, the Directors of the Research Centre and the NHRP Research Panel. However, the lack of precedent for treating animals as persons for habeas corpus purposes does not put an end to the investigation, given that writing has increased over time due to its high flexibility and vague scope. While the petitioner puts forward various justifications for granting chimpanzees like Tommy the freedoms protected by such writing, the attribution of rights was historically linked to the imposition of social obligations and obligations. The reciprocity between rights and duties stems from the principles of the social contract that have inspired the ideals of freedom and democracy at the heart of our system of government. From this point of view, society expands social rights in exchange for an explicit or tacit agreement of its members to submit to social responsibility. In other words, rights are linked to the capacity for moral action and the ability to assume social responsibility in exchange for those rights. . Needless to say, unlike human beings, chimpanzees have no legal duties, can submit to social responsibility, or be held legally accountable for their actions.
