International Symposium: "Due Diligence and Violence Against Women"

Tuesday, July 5, 2005 1:25 PM

The "Due Diligence and Violence Against Women" International Symposium will be held at the University of Berne in Switzerland from September 21-23. This symposium is open to academics, students, representatives from governmental and non-governmental organizations and politicians. The symposium will serve as an information forum for the international legal concept of due diligence and launch an interdisciplinary debate focusing on four main topics: violence in the family, trafficking in women, violence in armed combat, and violence legitimized with arguments of "culture."
