SISTERS RAISE HUMAN RIGHTS VIOLATIONS

Sisters Pegge Boehm, Aberdeen and Maris Stella Korb, Fargo contributed to what was the first evaluation of US Human Rights put forth by it's own citizens.

On behalf of the International Presentation Association (IPA), the Sisters submitted their observations in conjunction with two other organizations, namely Franciscans International and Unanima.

Sister Pegge addressed the genetic modification of seeds and Sister Maris Stella reported on labor trafficking.  This information contributed to a Universal Periodic Review (UPR) required of every country, every four years.  Material that was submitted will be publicly presented and discussed at Geneva, Switzerland in September, 2010.
