Binalakshmi Nepram will discuss the story of the forgotten, former Asiatic nation state of
Manipur located on the Indo-Burma border. She will trace the struggle of the Indigenous
Women of the state, now located in Northeast India, and how they developed a unique
and unprecedented women's movement. Ms. Nepram will throw light on the unreported
conflict region that is home to South Asia’s longest running war, where a martial law
called the Armed Forces (Special Powers) Act has been imposed on the population
since 1958; she will also discuss the resilience of the people who have long struggled
for democracy and rule of law.
