International Day of Rural Women 2025

Rural women feed our nation, yet too often live with insecurity, displacement, and neglect.
As we at IRIAD-The Electoral Hub mark the International Day of Rural Women, themed “Empowering Rural Women for Reparatory Justice: Advancing Inclusive and Sustainable Agri-Food Systems in Africa,” we stand with every woman who tills the soil, nurtures communities, and keeps our food systems alive.
True reparatory justice begins with safety, dignity, and inclusion for those who sustain us all.
