About this episode
On the Miraya Breakfast Show, we spoke with Faidha Mary Akotien Yor from the Women Human Rights Defenders and Gisma Juma Hussen from the South Sudan Human Rights Defenders Network about a recent dialogue that brought together civil society leaders and women parliamentarians to push for stronger and more meaningful participation of women in national decision making, including progress toward the thirty five percent commitment, the barriers women still face in politics and public life, and practical steps such as joint advocacy, better information sharing, and stronger protection mechanisms ahead of the expected elections.
