Baroness Helena Kennedy is one of Britain’s most distinguished lawyers and active public figures. She has spent her professional life giving voice to those who have least power within the system, championing civil liberties and promoting human rights. We are honoured to have her as a guest speaker for the CEDAW for Change Programme hosted by IGS/LMH. The Programme brings together over 30 feminist scholars and activists from 20 countries around the globe and is facilitated by Women’s Human Rights Education Institute (co-founders: Alda Facio and Angela Lytle) and Women’s Solidarity Fund (co-founder: Anna Arutshyan). The public event is chaired by Dr Maria Jaschok (Director of IGS).
