2nd UniSA Nelson Mandela Lecture: Through Their Eyes: Of Diamonds Rings & Cows - Diamonds for Love & Cows Are For?

Nelson Mandela is an Honorary Doctor of UniSA and International Patron of the Hawke Centre.
This lecture series promotes the fundamental rights and freedoms of individuals and the value of truth and reconciliation in life and public affairs.

This lecture is to be delivered by Unity Dow, former High Court Judge of Botswana, human rights legal consultant and novelist.

Unity Dow will raise the issue of how dominant cultures within this global village push smaller cultures into ghettoes from which the latter can only feebly protest, if that at all. Dominant cultures have claimed the right to describe 'the other', frame issues, define the norm and consequently define what is abnormal or aberrant.

Jointly presented by the School of Law and The Bob Hawke Prime Ministerial Centre at UniSA.
