No woman has ever died from being unmarried or not partnered. But we have a long list of women dead killed by their husbands; partners. And women with health issues from being in wrong marriages.
Please sisters better be alive crying alone ooooh!

I can’t even count the hundreds & hundreds of non-billable hours that I’ve done in my career. So many lawyers (often #WomenInLaw) do so much non-billable work that goes unrecognized, unappreciated, & uncompensated.
It’s particularly noticeable & problematic at large law firms which more heavily rely on billable and cash receipt metrics for evaluation. Non-billable work is a contribution, & it is also work. The profession needs to stop pretending that it’s not.

Participants go through a sesion on SRH and the law.Plays should accurately inform and educate communities of rights and responsibilities. It's therefore important for participants to aquaint themselves with the Zimbabwean Constitution.

The colonial period was beyond dominating Africa to exploit territories. It was also about organising and transforming the continent’s cultures into fundamentally European constructs.
