Join us for the launch of our new Lunch & Learn series – a space for knowledge-sharing, critical reflection, and industry insights organised by the Finance, Law & Business Industry Network Group.

We’re delighted to welcome Rising Leader Fereshta Abbasi, Afghanistan Researcher at Human Rights Watch, for an in-depth conversation on the state of human rights in Afghanistan today. Drawing on over a decade of experience in legal advocacy and investigative research, Fereshta will share insights from her work documenting abuses across the country – and reflect on the legal, political, and moral challenges facing those who seek justice and accountability.

This session will include a live Q&A, giving Rising Leaders the opportunity to engage directly with Fereshta and explore the intersections of international law, strategic policy, and human rights protection.

This event is the first in a new series curated by Shalini Sillett, our Ambassador for Finance, Law & Business, and is open to all Rising Leaders, regardless of industry background.
