More quotes by Fatuma Ndangiza

It’s important to treat men as allies rather than seeing them as people who are responsible for our situation.

It requires a political will and leadership that favors women’s participation in decision making, and women organizing to advocate for their rights.

It highlights the importance of self-reliance, unity, and shared responsibility in addressing national and global challenges.

The equality that we want is equality in terms of opportunities… not equality for us to be like men.

We have to be very careful. We have to understand the context. We have to also take into consideration the concerns and the fears of men.
