Jennifer Robinson and Keina Yoshida - How Many More Women?


Listen Later

In October 2022, Newcastle Writers Festival hosted a special event with internationally respected human rights and media lawyer Jennifer Robinson and colleague Dr Keina Yoshida. Journalist Maddison Connaughton hosted the conversation, which centred on Jennifer and Keina’s book How Many More Women? Exposing How the Law Silences Women.

How Many More Women? examines the laws around the world that silence women, and explores the changes we need to make to ensure that women’s freedoms are no longer threatened by the legal system that is supposed to protect them.

Thank you to event sponsor University of Newcastle's School of Humanities, Creative Industries and Social Sciences and to publisher Allen & Unwin.
