Here is the noborder website. It is not really like how I described it in class. noborder.org is a site of news and networking information dealing with freedom of movement and immigration issues.

UN launches campaign to eliminate violence against women

New York (PTI): UN Goodwill Ambassador and actor Nicole Kidman has launched an Internet campaign aimed at eliminating violence against women, and urged people to join the fight in trying to stop the "appalling human rights violation".

"One in three women may suffer from abuse and violence in her lifetime. This is an appalling human rights violation, yet it remains one of the invisible and under-recognised pandemics of our time," Kidman, the goodwill ambassador to United Nations Development Fund for Womemn (UNIFEM) said in a statement.

Despite the pervasiveness of the issue, it is not inevitable. We can put a stop to this, she said.

Processing the Presentation

I don't think I gave you all enough time to process Jackie's presentation today. Thoughts? And even critiques (she wants those for future work)?

P.S. I am not trying to bury the Samina post by the way, just thought about a lot today!!


Best.
