Gender Studies Panel: Priya's Shakti and Gender-Based Violence

The panel will feature Ram Devineni, co-producer and writer of Priya's Shakti; Dan Goldman, illustrator of Priya's Shakti; and Monica Singh, a former Parsons student who shares her resilient story from surviving a brutal acid attack to becoming UN Women’s Global Youth Champion.
