Description
Women’s rights have indeed advanced in the last decades. Just as an example, in many jurisdictions women can now vote and own and dispose of their own patrimony. But has all this legal advancement, when such has been the case, really impacted women’s advancement? Have all these printed rights really changed the reality of women? Has the law really changed women’s lives or is women’s reality trying to change the law? This is an Open Access Session, which is free to attend. We ask that you please register for this session via the zoom registration link.
