Abstract

International Women’s Day took place on the 8th March 2017 and ran with the campaign #BeBoldforChange. On the 13th March, the Glasgow Human Rights Network and the Gender & Sexualities Forum of the University of Glasgow were delighted to welcome women’s rights activist, Sharmila Thapa of Samida Women’s Development Forum to Glasgow – an activist embodying boldness and transformation. Sharmila’s talk gave us an important insight into the personal, political, and professional work of women’s rights activism in Nepal. Sharmila’s talk provided the opportunity to continue conversation and activism around women’s human rights beyond the focus of International Women’s Day into an everyday and transnational dialogue.
