WOMEN AND CULTURE; A TROUBLED RELATIONSHIP

Ingrid Westendorp,
PhD, Senior Lecturer/Researcher in International Law and Woman and Law

Culture is often regarded as the biggest barrier for women to enjoy their human rights. But the dynamic nature of culture and the fact that culture is important in giving a person a sense of belonging lead to the question of whether and how culture could be used to women’s advantage. During this lecture, Ingrid Westendorp will explore this question.
