Few positive developments on the protection of
women’s rights in Africa
Few positive developments have been recorded since last Session
regarding the protection of women’s rights, Commissioner Soyata Maiga, the
Special Rapporteur on the Rights of Women in Africa said on Thursday.
Despite the intensive advocacy campaign conducted by the mechanism of
the Special Rapporteur and the activities to combat gender-based violence
organised by NGOs, little has been achieved.
