Book Talk: Women’s Rights in Armed Conflict under International Law
Featuring author Catherine O’Rourke in conversation with Ambassador Bonnie Jenkins
December 8, 2020 | 12:00-1:00 pm CT
Catherine O’Rourke (Ulster University, 2016 Fulbright Scholar at UMN) discusses her new book in which she examines the various legal regimes regulating women’s rights in conflict. O’Rourke uses country case studies to reveal the practical implications of the fragmented protections of women’s rights, shedding light on areas of interaction, reinforcement, tension, and gaps. She will be joined in conversation by Ambassador Bonnie Jenkins, new Senior Fellow in Global Policy at the Humphrey School. Hosted by the University of Minnesota’s Human Rights Program.
