Subject: [end-violence] Upcoming field visits by Special Rapporteur
Ms. Radhika Coomaraswamy, UN Special Rapporteur on violence against women,
is planning to undertake field visits to the following countries this
year: Cuba and Haiti in June, Kosovo in July, Afghanistan at the end of
August, and Nepal, India and Bangladesh in October on the question of
trafficking of women and girls.
In this context, we would like to request your kind assistance. We are
trying to identify key contacts in the non-governmental sector working on
issues of violence against women in the above mentioned countries. Also,
we would greatly appreciate receiving any background information or
materials which are available.
I would like to thank you in advance for your continuing support.
Best regards,
