Justice for Rumana Monzur Webcast Online

Canada’s universities are becoming truly global, and when an unthinkable assault happens to a student from abroad, we need to ask the questions we would if she were a Canadian citizen: How could this happen? Why? What can be done to make sure it never happens to anyone else? This timely discussion took place at St. John’s College Lecture Hall. Panelist of this special panel, “Justice for Rumana Monzur — A Debate about violence against women from a legal and global perspective” include:

Louisa Russell (Vancouver Rape Relief & Women’s Shelter)
