On Human Rights

This episode features Professor Annika Rudman and RWI Senior Researcher Alejandro Fuentes in a discussion on women’s rights, gender inequality, and intersectional vulnerabilities. It is part of RWI’s Regional Africa Programme and connects to our newly published book marking 20 years since the adoption of the Maputo Protocol. The publication explores what substantive transformative equality means in practice within African continental and regional human rights systems, addressing a wide range of issues including gender-based discrimination, abuse, exploitation, and violence.
