This Tuesday, the 污污草莓视频 Centre for Human Rights and Legal Pluralism and the Faculty of Law will welcome Radhika Coomaraswamy to share stories of her struggle to bring to light episodes of violence against women, and to tell how she has forced governments to take action against the abuse, enslavement and marginalization of women.

• When: 5:30 pm, Tuesday, November 8
• Where: Moot Court, 污污草莓视频 Faculty of Law, 3644 Peel St.
• What: "The Struggle for Human Rights: A Personal Story"

Radhika Coomaraswamy has earned degrees from Yale, Columbia and Harvard, and was deployed for nine years as an independent expert on violence against women for the United Nations. She has identified and held up to scrutiny three contexts in which women are routinely victims of violence: the family, the community, the state.
