Join UQ's Asia Pacific Centre for the Responsibility to Protect and the School of Political Science and International Studies this International Women's Day for a special panel discussion focusing on women in Myanmar and the launch of ALTSEAN-Burma's "Women's Voices from the Revolution".

The book will be officially launched by ALTSEAN-Burma representatives Debbie Stothard, a prominent human rights advocate and former Secretary-General of the International Federation for Human Rights (FIDH), and May Kim, the book's contributing writer, translator and producer.
