African Agenda is delighted to bring you our conversations with leading champions for women's rights in Africa; most of whom were central to the journey of the Maputo Protocol from draft to where it is today.

This is part 1 of our 4 part conversation with Ms Faiza Jama Mohamed, Director of the Africa Office of Equality Now and one of the founders of SOAWR. She speaks with us about her early days working on women's rights in Africa and the beginnings of the Solidarity for African Women's Rights (SOAWR) Coalition. #FollowTheProtocol #MaputoAt15 #LetsTalkData #followTheProtocol #maputoAt15
