Possible Exam Topics
I want to do something about women from Afghanistan or Pakistan and their human rights violations. I am interested in how the rights of women in Afghanistan or Pakistan are violated (and how they are against the universal declaration of human rights). I am interested in this topic because of the recent news events about the woman from Pakistan. Also when I was downtown I saw a women from the Middle East who had been abused (I think she was burned), so ever since then I have been interested in human rights.

I don't really know where I want to take this topic, but I know I want to do something about their limited rights being violated. I may want to focus on one right in particular that is violated very often, or something like that. I also am interested in what the rest of the world is doing to help or prevent the human rights violations.
