Sous-série SS10 - Twelfth Biennial Conference - Access to Justice for Women: The Changing Face of Inequality

Recordings from NAWL's Twelfth Biennial Conference on “Access to Justice for Women: The Changing Face of Inequality". Held in Halifax, the Conference’s objectives were to bring together women from across Canada to discuss access to justice issues and formulate strategies for change. Women attended workshops about the impact of changing public policy on women’s lives, shifting into action for the new millennium and sharing experiences and solutions for assessing the justice system. For the first time, the Conference also included a separate Advance Day for Aboriginal women and women of colour. On that day, Aboriginal women and women of colour congregated in a comfortable space to strategize about access to justice for women belonging to their communities.
