UN HRC32: #ImamsForShe: Workshops on Preventing and Countering VAWG

#ImamsForShe: Workshops with International Imams and Scholars of Islam on Preventing and Countering Violence against Women and Girls

Muslims for Progressive Values have organized a unique event consisting of three workshops involving #ImamsForShe champions, who are tasked to resolve real case studies of discrimination and violence against women and girls. Together with women’s rights defenders and activists, the #ImamsForShe champions will demonstrate that women’s rights can be promoted using international human rights law and Shari’a. Key issues assessed are early and forced marriages, inheritance, female genital mutilation and cutting (FGM/C) and access to education.
