| Location: | OSI-New York |
| Event Date: | February 7, 2006 |
| Speakers: | Kelly Dawn Askin, Tracey Gurd, Ruth Rubio Marin , Kelli Muddell, Vasuki Nesiah, Debra Schultz |
Transitional justice mechanisms and post-conflict reconciliation efforts often neglect the complex ways political violence affects the lives of women. Opportunities for gender justice in reconciliation contexts remain tragically under-realized.
At this forum sponsored by OSI's Network Women's Program and Justice Initiative, panelists discussed a wide range of issues related to gender and transitional justice around the world. Topics included sexual violence, tribunals, reparations, international criminal law, the relationship between gender justice at the international and national levels, LGBT issues, and memory and resistance.
Introduced by OSI President Aryeh Neier, the panel featured:
- Kelly Dawn Askin, Open Society Justice Initiative;
- Tracey Gurd, Open Society Justice Initiative;
- Kelli Muddell, International Center for Transitional Justice;
- Vasuki Nesiah, International Center for Transitional Justice;
- Ruth Rubio Marin, International Center for Transitional Justice;
- Debra Schultz, OSI Network Women's Program.
