In the midst of the presidential election process in the United States, Women’s Learning Partnership will bring together grassroots women leaders from Africa, Asia, Latin America, and the Middle East to discuss the expanding participation of women in political processes around the world.
The speakers will share experiences and discuss practical strategies and grassroots, culture-friendly initiatives that they have used to mobilize women, especially young women, to participate in making decisions that affect their lives and communities.
Join us for a conversation on these topics with women activists from Iran, Kyrgyzstan, Malaysia, Mauritania, Nicaragua, Nigeria, Palestine, Pakistan.
This lecture, co-sponsored by Women Living Under Muslim Laws (WLUML) and Women's Learning Partnership (WLP) in partnership with several other feminist organizations, and co-hosted by McGill University’s Center for Human Rights and Legal Pluralism, is a conversation with renowned feminist Charlotte Bunch on navigating the current era of global backlash against women's rights.
