In recent years, the world has seen an increasing number of governments stifle freedom of the press, engage in democratic backsliding and scapegoat religious and ethnic minorities, practices that have led to an increase in atrocity crimes.
This timely and important webinar consisted of a high-level panel of distinguished speakers:
Michael Abramowitz – President of Freedom House
The Honourable Irwin Cotler – Chair of the Raoul Wallenberg Centre for Human Rights and
former Minister of Justice and Attorney General of Canada and longtime Parliamentarian
Anne Gearan – Moderator, White House Correspondent for the Washington Post
