Human Rights and Domestic Violence Workshop at PUC

The workshop was adapted from the Robert F. Kennedy Center for Justice and Human Right's Speak Truth to Power curriculum.

Last weekend, we partnered with Pannasastra University of Cambodia to bring the Speak Truth to Power curriculum to students. 25 gender studies students spent the day learning about human rights and domestic violence through the lens of prominent Russian activist and human rights defender Marina Pisklakova.

Students broke into small groups and discussed case studies on 4 different topics: freedom of expression in Europe, torture in Guantanamo Bay, human trafficking in the fishing industry in Indonesia, and land rights of indigenous people in the Amazon. 

CIVICUS Cambodia translated Speak Truth To Power as "Courage Without Borders".  Click on image or here for the complete curriculum in KHMER.
