The Conference is supported by the Faculty of Law, University of New South Wales and the Faculty of Law, University of Technology, Sydney, Australia and aims to bring together academics, lawyers, researchers, students, and activists from around the world to explore how women’s experiences have been structured, impacted, controlled, or ignored by law; the challenges posed by globalization, growing militarization and fundamentalism to the law and legal structures, and the possibilities and limits of realizing women’s rights through the law. Andrea will be speaking on the issue of municipal regulation of women’s work and will be leading a panel discussion on gender and paid employment.
