WOMENSPACE 2009
SPECIAL GUEST SPEAKER:
Rosa Vasseghi
Author of Where is the Justice? Stories from behind closed doors
Rosa was born in Iran and grew up in a Baha'i family. She arrived in Melbourne in November 1999 having been unable to return to Iran due to threats to her life. Rosa is a successful author of books for children and adults in Iran as well as since her exile. Her recent book portrays the suffering of many women and girls whose lives were destroyed by those who abused their power. However, it is the strength of the survivors that this book celebrates. Through understanding the stories, Rosa says she hopes that a world of unity and peace can become your hope. Rosa will share with us her extraordinary and deeply inspiring journey as well as some of her poignant poetry which has been set to music.
