Conference Overview
The JIVA focuses on intersectionality of vulnerabilities and biases and how they transform into abuse and criminality, into rights denials and insecurity and ultimately robbing off agency of women and transgenders, making them vulnerable to rights denials and insecurity. Started since 2021 every year this day is celebrated as a culmination of yearlong activities of the Gender Resource Center and a begging of five days' workshop and consultative meets on Women's Security, Human Rights and Gender Justice Issues.
This conference goes through online and offline modes with prominent thinkers, practitioners and academics joining in for a focused deliberation and action planning for women's security and gender justice mainstreaming.
