Forced Sterilization, the Work of the International Justice Resource Center and the Election of the New U.N. Secretary General.

Discussion with Lisa Reinsberg on the incidence of forced sterilization throughout the Americas and around the world and the International Justice Resource Center\'s (IJRC) petition in I.V. v Bolivia to the Inter-American Court of Human Rights arguing for the need of a reformulation of forced sterilization as an autonomous core human rights violation with a need for positive measures imposed upon medical staff to ensure proper consent is provided for any sterilization procedure.
