Although International Women’s Day is marked on 8 March, we believe it should be celebrated, and women should be recognised all year round. In this spirit, we gathered a powerhouse panel of women in law to discuss the evolving role of women in the African legal sector.

In Part 2 of this podcast series, Accelerate Action – The State of Gender Equality in the African Legal Sector, our host Brigitta Mangale is joined by Lucinde Rhoodie, Lebohang Mabidikane, Anli Bezuidenhout, and Lydia Owuor to explore the progress made, the challenges that remain, and the steps needed to create a more inclusive legal industry.

Key topics discussed:

  • The impact of legal frameworks on women’s rights in Africa
  • Breaking barriers in a traditionally male-dominated industry
  • Strategies to support and accelerate women’s careers in law
  • Practical steps for achieving gender equality in the legal sector
     

This conversation is essential listening for anyone committed to driving meaningful change.
