Ten years ago, we lost Priya Thangarajah β€” an aspiring young lawyer and activist who had worked both in India and her native Sri Lanka on issues of gender, sexuality, ethnicity, violence and human rights β€” when she took her life. To commemorate her life and work, this Human Rights Day, we will revisit three reports Priya authored during her lifetime. Specialists will offer contemporary reflections on the themes they cover, to create a festschrift, a selection of deliberations on her legacy as a scholar.

This is a hybrid event!

WHEN: Wednesday, December 10, 2025, 5 PM onwards

WHERE: Ground Floor Conference Hall, Training Centre, NLSIU Bengaluru, and on Zoom

Ten years ago, we lost Priya Thangarajah β€” an aspiring young lawyer and activist who had worked both in India and her native Sri Lanka on issues of gender, sexuality, ethnicity, violence and human rights β€” when she took her life. Priya was a graduate of Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi, the National Law School of India University, Bengaluru, and Georgetown University, Washington DC, where she was also a Fulbright scholar.

To commemorate her life and work, this Human Rights Day, we will revisit three reports Priya authored during her lifetime. Specialists will offer contemporary reflections on the themes they cover, to create a festschrift, a selection of deliberations on her legacy as a scholar.

These themes are: a. Q***r couples and Habeas Corpus in India (co-authored with Ponni Arasu); b. Tamil - Muslim relations in Sri Lanka (co-authored with Mirak Raheem); and c. Legal protections for q***r persons in Sri Lanka. In addition, we will also cover a fourth theme, i.e. d. Q***rness and mental health, with a focus on su***de.

Our distinguished panel of specialists, which will reflect on Priya’s life and work, includes:
Rumi Harish | Manavi Atri | Shreen Saroor | Sarala Emmanuel | Ermiza Tegal | Pasan Jayasinghe | Vinay Chandran | Kaushiki Rao

This will be a hybrid event, with the in-person component at the National Law School.
