Friends,

Per Rosie's suggestion, here is a proposed reordering of panels. I have
*starred* the person's name who has expressed willingness/interest in
leading this group, or who hasn't expressed an UNWILLINGNESS to do so
(which, for our purposes, means writing up the abstract and circulating it
to panel members for their approval).

One final note: While you may submit your candidacy for more than one
panel, if they both get accepted you will have to choose, as ASBH has a new
rule that individuals can only present once per conference. This is a
special concern for panel 1, as 2/3 of the members listed have their names
in for other panels as well.

(1) Rights-based approaches towards safeguarding/strengthening womens'
sexual and reproductive rights:
      (a) * Mary Rawlinson * -- UNESCO

unfocused...]

      (b) Arleen Salles
