Two of Regent University Law School's journals are
sponsoring a one-day symposium starting the evening of Friday, February
15 and continuing until noon Saturday: Endangered Gender: A Discussion on Sex-Selective Abortion.
All the panelists should prove insightful but I'm personally looking forward to hearing from Prakash Tyagi, who has the distinction of coming the greatest distance to be part of the symposium. Prakash is the executive director of GRAVIS, an Indian NGO working with the marginalized rural population of the Indian state of Rajasthan, where sex-selective abortion is a significant problem. I came to know Prakash while I was teaching at the National Law University in Jodhpur, Rajasthan as a Fulbright Scholar. I am delighted that he will be able to attend this symposium and look forward to hearing his comments about the "on the ground" situation in his part of India.
The conference is free to all registrants and there are plenty of top-notch accommodations neaby. Let me know if you'd like to come and I'll steer you in the right direction.
