Online Activism in Eastern Democratic Republic of Congo

In March 2016, as part of the bi-weekly member profile stories, we met Linda Nibango, a feminist journalist based in Eastern Democratic Republic of Congo. Linda, an AWID member since May 2015, told us about her vision for this year’s International Women’s Day, the impact of online journalism, the right to freedom of expression, and the campaign to #FreeRebekaKavugho. She has also contributed to IWD 2016: Voices of our members.

"They need to understand that tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, we’ll continue to fight for our rights."
- Linda Nibango

Watch the video and find out more about Linda’s work and vision.
