Violence Against Women: Supporting the Needs of Survivors LIMITED
Feedback form is now closed.
Limited Capacity seats available

The United Nations describes violence against women as “the most pervasive yet least recognized human rights abuse in the world,” and it takes many forms: from domestic and intimate partner violence, to trafficking, to sexual assault, and more. Add in the fact that how women experience violence is impacted by our layered identities, and it’s clear there’s no one size fits all solution to providing support to survivors. These panelists are leading efforts to support survivors in ways that meet their unique needs, as whole individuals. Join us for a conversation about what informs their approach and inspires their work.
