Janine di Giovanni Speaker Profile: At A Glance
Janine Di Giovanni began her work many years ago when she was introduced to the late Human Rights Lawyer Felicia Langer in Jerusalem. After following Langer for several months, Di Giovanni abandoned her academic life for a life of field work and writing. Witnessing the genocides in Bosnia and Rwanda set her on a track of working in some of the darkest corners of the world, exposing human rights abuse. Janine is now an award-winning writer, as well as a human-rights and war-crimes educator and adviser. She is currently director of the Reckoning Project Ukraine, a USAID-sponsored transitional justice project for the UN Democracy Fund.
