Title
The Mellon Think Tank: Addressing Human Rights in Multiple Disciplines
Synopsis
In line with the overall theme of this year’s Think Thank on Human Rights in the 21st century, our project brought together courses in political science, languages and literature, as well as health and human performance for an interdisciplinary discussion on the different ways that women and girls understand and navigate notions of sexuality across global cultures. Cross-course activities included film screenings, guest speakers, poetry readings, and cross course discussions.
