Global Webinar on Human Rights

How is COVID-19 affecting human rights movements around the world?

Join students from Avicenne Private Business School in Tunisia and Indiana University in the United States in a one-hour webinar on the state of human rights worldwide amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

COVID-19 is challenging human rights activists and at the same time bringing new concerns to the fore. In this exclusive News Decoder webinar, students from two continents will address different facets of the global fight for human rights. How is the largest Burmese population in the U.S. organizing to protest the coup in Myanmar? What impact has COVID-19 had on gender-based violence? How has the pandemic affected Polish activists opposed to curbs on abortion? How is the Black Lives Matter movement evolving in Indiana? How are moves by Tunisia to protect women affecting society there and across the Arab world?
