IFLN event: A feminist approach to litigation and legal advocacy internationally

Wed 17 Jul 2024 10:00 AM5:00 PM

City University Law School, EC1V 0HB

What can we learn from lawyers in different countries and jurisdictions about their strategies to tackle male violence against women?

Join us on 17 July 2024 for the first hybrid International Feminist Legal Network event.

During the event we will discuss local, regional, national and international approaches on issues such as:

  • Femicide and suicide resulting from domestic abuse
  • Challenging criminalisation of survivors of male violence
  • Challenging men’s fightback through the family courts and the use of parental alienation
  • Police perpetrated abuse
  • Violence against women framed as torture
  • Legal representation for victims in the criminal justice system and challenging anonymity for perpetrators
  • Using litigation as a tool for change
  • The impact of strategic litigation and how to enhance it

Lawyers from around the world will attend in person or online including from the Philippines, South Africa, United States and elsewhere.
