CEDAW Speaker Series: Article 5 with Bandana Rana

On Saturday, July 23 2022 at 10am EDT, Equality Bahamas was joined by Bandana Rana, a member of the CEDAW Committee. Bandana led a conversation on CEDAW Article 5 which focuses on gender stereotypes and prejudice.

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.
