Feminism in Public Debt: A Human Rights Approach

As many developing countries are facing increasingly higher levels of debt and economic instability, "Feminism in Public Debt: A Human Rights Approach” is an interdisciplinary volume that explores the intersection of sovereign debt and women's human rights.

Through contributions from leading voices in academia, civil society, international organizations and national governments, it shows how debt-related economic policies are widening gender inequalities and argues for a systematic feminist approach to debt issues.

Offering a new perspective on the global debt crisis, this book provides readers a way to understand the complex relationship between economics and gender.

On Thursday, November 7 from 10:00-11:00AM EST, join us for a virtual event featuring Marina Zucker-Marques, chapter contributor and Senior Academic Researcher with the Boston University Global Development Policy Center, and Juan Pablo Bohoslavsky, co-editor and Researcher with the National Scientific and Technical Research Council of Argentina, on a human rights approach to sovereign debt.

This event is part of the Fall 2024 Global Economic Governance Book Talk series.
