About this event
When Rights and Religions Collide (WRRC) brings together researchers, advocates and individuals raised in insular religious communities to demonstrate how a marginalized individual’s rights and choices are compromised in closed communities. WRRC will explore how, in a society that values individual rights, these compromises often go unchallenged.
Finally, we will discuss how we can all play a role in ensuring that religious doctrine is not used as a tool of oppression, and that individuals who wish to leave these insular communities have the support they need as they enter mainstream society.
You can access our growing list of confirmed speakers on our website. If you are a member of the press, wish to table at the conference, or have any other inquiry, please email us at RightsAndReligions@gmail.com.
This conference is produced by co-founders of the Rights and Religions Forum Torah Bontrager, Malkie Schwartz, and Sarah Haider. Read more about the conference here.
