Bodily autonomy intersects strongly with politics of gender, sexuality and abortion. It is a principle that supports perspectives like #prochoice and defines clearly why #rapeculture in all its facets is a grave violation of human rights.

WHAT IS BODILY AUTONOMY?

"Bodily autonomy is defined as the right to self governance over one's own body without external influence or coercion. It is generally considered to be a fundamental human right."

[Leloko @LelokoHRDC]

Tomorrow (18.01.2020) people around the world will take to the streets to march for bodily autonomy.

While there is no official march here in #Lesotho you can show solidarity by wearing red and sharing a picture and message on your socials.

Littering and a lack of waste management are major problems in our community! Looking forward to our environmental awareness education program in schools this year, and continuing to encourage environmental #activism amongst our members! #FridaysForFuture #Lesotho #ClimateChange

If you are an organisation or group that is focused on combating climate change and you need help (awareness building, volunteers for initiatives, etc) the Leloko team is more than willing to assist.

[Leloko @LelokoHRDC]

The entire world is experiencing the extreme effects of climate change. The drought in #Lesotho is but one example...

[Leloko @LelokoHRDC]

Securing access to basic needs like food and water in a climate where traditional agriculture is failing. Perhaps more workshops and initiatives on smart agriculture...

My cousin in Nigeria and I were literally just whatsapping about this. Her fiancé’s village is under water. People are living in Internally Displaced Camps. The government are doing nothing. They feel like climate change is only interesting when it affects western societies.
