CEDAW for Change
The CEDAW for Change Institute is a one week educational institute focussed on the UN Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW) and its core principles of non-discrimination and substantive equality. Participants engage in in-depth learning of the theoretical and analytical frame of the Convention, and examine case studies that have come before CEDAW and strategize on how to link their work to that of the CEDAW committee and a women’s human rights education framework.
