CEDAW Speaker Series: Article 11 with Hiroko Akizuki

On March 25, 2023, CEDAW Committee Member Hiroko Akizuki led a conversation on CEDAW Article 11 on Employment.

The CEDAW (Convention) Speaker Series is designed to familiarize members of the public with the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW), known as the women’s bill of rights.

On the third week of each month, we will be joined by an expert to look at one Article of the Convention, its interpretation, its application to the Bahamian context, and the most recent assessment of the country’s progress.
