DESCRIPTION:This panel discusses rural women’s rights to bodily autonomy 
 and the link with owning and inheriting land. For example\, a field study 
 from the Brazilian organization Espaço Feminista shows that the legal pro
 cedures necessary to reclaim land that is rightfully theirs is prohibitive
 ly expensive for most women\, who also often do not fully understand the s
 cope of their rights due to a lack of education and gender discriminatory 
 norms. This panel discusses successful approaches to transforming and impl
 ementing laws/policies that give women autonomy over their own bodies and 
 support them to reclaim their inheritance.\n\nStudent Panelists:\n\nBea
