Expert panel
Chair: Chris Berry, King’s College London
This roundtable is motivated by both recent controversies and struggles about remembering – and forgetting – Taiwan’s so-called “comfort women” and the continued use of sexual violence in warfare today. Urgent questions include:
* How can we remember without re-traumatizing victims, but instead empower them?
* How has does our knowledge about past sexual violence shape our understanding of what is happening today?
* As survivors become fewer with the passing of time, how can we continue to raise public awareness?
* What are legal, political and cultural specificities of dealing with the legacy of military sexual violence in different places?
Expert speakers:
- Dr. Marta Havryshko, Associate Researcher at the Ukrainian National Academy of Sciences
- Feride Rushiti, The Kosovo Rehabilitation Centre for Torture Victims (KRCT)
- Emilie Hu, Fenton Communications, graduate of Scripps College
Snacks and drinks are provided.
