Event Description
The introductory Webinar titled, “Sexual Coercion- What kind of behavior will constitute an act of Sexual Coercion”; held by As-U-Moot on 29th of January, 2022, was an initiative to approach the significance of the topic Sexual Coercion from the POV of Socio-psychology. Our guest speaker on the introductory webinar, Mss. Chandrima Nandi, Art Historian and Researcher on Cultural Anthropology; addressed the confusion and stigma in India around the subject of Sexual Coercion where as countries such as New Zee Land and Australia has gotten way further with their pursuit to diminish offences related to sexual coercion. In the end, as prompted by the Mss. Chandrima Nandi, we are left with the question, that- Whether the provisions for Rape provided under Section 375 of The Indian Penal Code, is able to provide protection towards all living beings (no matter human or animal ) or not?
In continuation of her train of thought, As-U-Moot, brings a Continuation Webinar from the POV of Law, on this World Social Justice Day, 20th February, 2022, a Webinar open to all, as it's moto is to bring a change in the Society, so all of your voice matters and count. Our Guest Speaker, Ms. Abhisikta Basu, Assitent Professor IIIJS, (Department of Law),UEM;Kolkata , will share with us, her thoughts and opinion on the matter along with our Guest, Mss. Chandrima Nandi
