Asma Jahangir, former UN special rapporteur on religion and belief, is a human rights activist who has been working courageously both in Pakistan and internationally for decades to prevent the persecution of religious minorities, women, and the exploitation of children. She is President of the Supreme Court Bar Association of Pakistan. Ms Jahangir recently called for an inquiry into reports of Pakistan's security apparatus's plot to assassinate her. Keith Porteous Wood and Terry Sanderson have worked with her at the UN in Geneva.
