Kerry Kennedy, daughter of former U.S. Sen. Robert F. Kennedy, is aiming to promote human-rights education in Asia—and she is starting with Hong Kong.
The 51-year-old president of the Robert F. Kennedy Center for Justice and Human Rights and chairwoman of the Amnesty International Leadership Council launched an education campaign in Asia on Monday.
