On February 10, President Carter and participants in the Center’s Human Rights Defenders Forum discussed efforts to protect the rights of women and girls from abuse, with a special emphasis on the role faith groups can play. The conversation, moderated by the Center’s Karin Ryan, featured leaders who are working against the normalization of violence in society, with a focus on confronting sexual violence and preventing conflict and violent extremism. This event furthers the charge set forth in President Carter’s acclaimed recent book, “A Call to Action: Women, Religion, Violence, and Power.”
