In Djibouti, the Network for Sustainable Development and the Association for Women’s Education and Health of ARTA/WEAH will organize activities on October 17. One hundred and fifty women in the region will participate in a three-kilometre march to show that women want more rights and freedoms. An appeal will be made to the women of Djibouti and a discussion held on equality between women and men, poverty and the elimination of genital mutilation. An open letter to government representatives will be presented along with a song about freedom and independence for women. After that will come a play telling the story of a woman named to the position of Minister and the resulting revolt by the men.
