This gap isn’t just about numbers; it’s the result of long-standing structural barriers, deep-rooted gender norms, and the societal expectation that women should stay in the background, especially when it comes to decision-making spaces."

[Women In Global Health Rwanda @WGHRwanda]

In her Remarks, Dr. Clarisse MUTIMUKEYE, Women In Global Health Rwanda Representative, highlighted, "In Rwanda, although women make up 60–70% of the health workforce, less than 30% hold leadership positions.

A sea of PINK. A surge of power. A room full of bold, brilliant African feminists closing the day stronger than we started.

Today, we confronted discrimination. We reimagined justice. We stood in solidarity.

[FEMNET @FemnetProg]

If pink symbolizes strength and identity, we wore it LOUD and PROUD! 💗

🔥 The energy? Unmatched. The vibe? Unstoppable.

💪🏾 On to Day 2 and we’re just getting started!

📢From Gaborone 🇧🇼 to Accra 🇬🇭, the baton is officially passed.

#AfricaDisruptCSW69 hands over to #AfricaDisruptCSW70.

We inherit the movement.
We evolve the strategy.
We sharpen the agenda.

#CSW70

[FEMNET @FemnetProg]

The baton handover from Botswana 🇧🇼 to Ghana 🇬🇭 is more than a ceremony — it is continuity.

It signifies that African feminist movements are not moments, they are momentum.

Each host country carries forward strategy, solidarity, and the collective voice shaping #CSW70.

🔥 We don’t start over. We build forward.

🔥 PANEL: Ensuring & Strengthening Access to Justice for Women & Girls in Africa.

Featuring feminist voices from across Africa.

From family law to the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW).

We are interrogating systems.
Justice must be accessible. Affordable. Transformative. 💗

#AfricaDisruptCSW70

[FEMNET @FemnetProg]

In powerful conversations, we centered African women living in conflict-prone zones and spoke boldly about #AccessToJustice.

For women in conflict settings, justice is not automatic. It is contested. It is political. It is urgent. It is deeply personal.

When systems fail them, justice is not just delayed — it is denied. 💗
