Imagining Another Future <strong>for</strong> Asia: Ideas and Pathways <strong>for</strong> Change<br />
AUW Hosts International Symposium in Dhaka, Bangladesh<br />
The <strong>Asian</strong> <strong>University</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>Women</strong> will convene a three-day international symposium in Dhaka on<br />
January 20, 21, and 22, 2011. Chaired by the Hon’ble Prime Minister of Bangladesh and Chief<br />
Patron of AUW Sheikh Hasina Wazed, and the leading British human rights lawyer and a staunch<br />
Patron of AUW Cherie Blair, the symposium will be styled as “Imagining Another Future <strong>for</strong> Asia:<br />
Ideas and Pathways <strong>for</strong> Change,” and will bring together students, scholars, and leaders from all<br />
walks of life to focus their attention on four key themes confronting Asia: governance, poverty,<br />
environment, and security. This conference follows a similar program held in October 2008 which<br />
focused on “Overcoming History: Rethinking Rights and Opportunities <strong>for</strong> <strong>Women</strong> in Asia.”<br />
We are eager to welcome you to this symposium. For those wishing to visit the <strong>Asian</strong> <strong>University</strong><br />
<strong>for</strong> <strong>Women</strong> in Chittagong, there will be an organized program <strong>for</strong> visitors on January 18, which<br />
