搁茅蝉耻尘茅
(En anglais seulement) Article 23 of the CRPD requires state signatories to 鈥渢ake effective and appropriate measures to eliminate discrimination against persons with disabilities in all matters relating to marriage, family, parenthood and relationships, on an equal basis with others鈥�. Using the Convention as a backdrop, this seminar will examine issues surrounding disability and family matters. In particular, it will examine how legal and social constructs of parenthood, sexuality and sexual health have a dangerous potential to exclude people with disabilities. We will discuss parenting and adoption for disabled parents and children with disabilities, under-reported violence against women with disabilities, as well as shelter accessibility and State response mechanisms.
L'茅v茅nement prendra la forme d'un s茅minaire et les lectures requises seront distribu茅es 脿 l'avance. Veuillez confirmer votre participation 脿 chrlp.law [at] mcgill.ca avant le 11 mars. Un l茅ger d茅jeuner sera servi.
