Please join Professor Bennoune as she delivers a lecture to mark her appointment as the Homer G. Angelo and Ann Berryhill Endowed Chair. 
 
She will discuss the contemporary international human rights law that requires states to combat discrimination against women and to ensure women's full equality. In light of recent events, such as open assault on women's rights even by some world leaders, on the one hand, and global #MeToo movements, on the other, Professor Bennoune will review how women's human rights law developed, the role of women's rights activism in its evolution, and the challenges to its implementation today.
 
Lunch will be provided. MCLE credits available.
