Register here There are fundamental, comprehensive changes required in the legal framework in a post-revolution Sudan in order for women to be able to fully assert their rights. Concurrently, research from the Canadian Femicide Observatory for Accountability and Justice paints a stark picture of the social and legal gaps that deny women in Canada their full agency. Join us as we bring together Asha El-Karib, of Inter Pares’ long-term counterpart, the Sudanese Organization for Research and Development, and Amanda Dale, of the Canadian Femicide Observatory for Justice and Accountability, for a dialogue on legal equality for women in Sudan and Canada. They will explore the local manifestations of a global pandemic of violence against women; the difficulties in using the legal systems to access justice; the centrality of listening to women’s rights advocates when crafting judicial mechanisms; and the potential of international solidarity. Inter Pares acknowledges Global Affairs Canada for their financial support for the Building Momentum for Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights program.
