I am a human rights lawyer who has been working on issues of human rights and social justice for more than a decade with the United Nations and living on four different continents in my human rights work with the UN. Further I am a human rights educator who has taught human rights law for 10 years and has been teaching issues of human right to middle and high school students for over three years.
