Join Monique Harden, Attorney & Co-Director of Advocates for Environmental Human Rights, for a presentation on defending and advancing the human right to a healthy environment. Monique will examine the legal counsel and advocacy support that helped win groundbreaking environmental justice victories to remedy governmental systems that subject communities to severely toxic environments.

Monique’s lecture is part of a Environmental Reproductive Health Lecture Series and is titled, Upholding Our Human Right to Live in a Healthy Environment.
