Women Testify: A Planning Guide for Popular Tribunals & Hearings

2005

Women Testify: A Planning Guide for Popular Tribunals & Hearings draws on the Center for Women’s Global Leadership’s experiences of organizing women’s human rights tribunals and hearings over the past decade.

While the Center’s tribunals and hearings have focused principally on women’s human rights issues and gender-specific violations, the methodology outlined within this text will be a valuable resource regardless of the specific topic--or topics--that future tribunal organizers intend to address. For example, the first chapter of Women Testify , En-gendering Popular Tribunals/Hearings, is intended to give readers a brief introduction to the history of popular tribunals and hearings as they have evolved over the past half century. This historical background provides a context in which organizers might locate future women’s human rights tribunals and hearings as well as other varieties of tribunals and hearings.
