Virtually all constitutions guarantee women's right to equality, yet, there is a rise in backlash against legal, political, economic, social and cultural efforts to achieve women's equality.
This podcast series speaks with leading legal scholars from the US, Canada, South Africa and India to explore how constitutions can frustrate efforts to achieve women's equality, and to imagine a new constitutionalism that places women as equal actors and participants in the constitutional project.
On today's episode Meghan Campbell is joined by Professor Jennifer Koshan, from the University of Calgary, to discuss women in the Canadian Constitution.
