On Wednesday, April 10th, Women In International Security, Women of Color Advancing Peace and Security (WCAPS), the International Foundation for Electoral Systems (IFES), and the U.S. National Committee for UN Women hosted a screening of The Trials of Spring and an expert panel discussion.
The Trials of Spring, a Fork Film Production, takes us into the lives of three Egyptian women as they put their lives and bodies on the line fighting for justice and freedom. The film tells the story of Egypt’s Arab Spring, the human rights abuses that came to define it and the women willing to risk everything.
Distinguished Panelists:
Eric Hodachok, Senior Program Manager, MENA, International Foundation for Electoral Systems (IFES)
Gini Reticker, Director of The Trials of Spring
Hend Nafea, Director and co-founder of Human Rights Port, featured cast member in the documentary
