Second Annual International Human Rights Lecture - 28 Nov 2015

2015’s signature event, the International Human Rights Lecture was delivered by Graça Machel, one of the world’s leading women’s rights activists who has campaigned tirelessly to champion equality for women and children. 

Machel’s lecture at The Mary Robinson Centre addressed equality and justice for all in our society, looking at issues in today’s world that adversely affect women and children, including climate change, political and social unrest and the current migrant crisis. A discussion between Graça Machel and Mary Robinson followed the lecture, facilitated by journalist Olivia O’Leary.

A full report on the lecture can be found on our Blog and images and media coverage of the event are available on our Facebook page.  Sign up to our newsletter to hear of future events.
