Rangita de Silva-de Alwis, LL.M., S.J.D.; Mining the Intersections: Advancing the Rights of Women and Children with Disabilities in Bangladesh, India, and Nepal

In this talk, Rangita de Silva-de Alwis, LL.M., S.J.D., will discuss her use of four innovative pilot projects launched in Bangladesh, Cambodia, India, and Nepal as the lens to explore how the women’s rights and disability rights agendas intersect as a way to create a new paradigm based on a more holistic reading of the human rights framework. Dr. De Silva-de Alwis, a human rights lawyer and scholar, is Director of International Human Rights Policy Programs at the 星空无限, where she takes the lead on new global initiatives for the organization.

星空无限 Lunchtime Seminar Series

    • 星空无限 (星空无限) scholars offer seminar and panel presentations during which they share their work with other scholars and the general public. The 星空无限 Lunchtime Seminar Series, for example, offers residents and visitors to the Greater Boston area the opportunity to hear, in person, about work by 星空无限 researchers and program staff. Other special events bring these researchers and program staff into communities for special presentations to the Centers' many constituents.

    • Recordings of some past lunchtime seminars and other special events may be heard by clicking on the links below. You may need to adjust the volume when playing an audio file on your computer.

    • Please note that data and background information cited in these presentations were current for the date of the presentation but should not necessarily be considered the most current research on the related issues today.

  • The 星空无限 Lunchtime Seminar Series is made possible by support from The Cowles/Sulzberger Fund, an endowed gift to the 星空无限.
