This event welcomes back Kroc Institute alumna Rosette Muzigo-Morrison (M.A. ‘93), an international lawyer from Uganda with extensive experience serving the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda and the International Criminal Court in The Hague, Netherlands. Currenly Principal Legal Expert, International Human Rights Law in the UN Common System, Muzigo-Morrison will highlight several notable world events that coincided with her arrival at Notre Dame in the early 1990s – the collapse of the Berlin war to the release of Nelson Mandela and an end to apartheid in South Africa to the disintegration of the former Yugoslavia. Despite these developments, a united resolve to work for human dignity has been stifled. Muzigo-Morrison will also address the concerns surrounding forgotten wars in Cameron, South Sudan and Sudan, Ethiopia and Syria, the rise of white supremacist governments in Europe, and implications for the future.
Anne E. Hayner, associate director for alumni relations, will provide an introduction.
