The Counter Narrative

From sunup to sundown, from Africa to Asia, America and all the way to Europe, girls are resisting the patriarchy daily. However, their stories have been dismissed, overlooked and ignored.

In this episode of the Counter Narrative Podcast, we chat with Cate Nyambura and Jama Jack, two dynamic advocates for social justice and gender equality. Cate Nyambura, a feminist activist and development practitioner, and Jama Jack, a communication specialist and gender advocate, share their insights and experiences in challenging societal norms and pushing for systemic change with the project “Stories of Girls’ Resistance”. They tell us real stories of girls all over the world; how the patriarchy affects them, tries to beat them down and the various ways in which they are resisting and standing strong in their girl power.
