What does life as a woman or girl look like in your country / city / town / village? Any issues / challenges / exciting milestones? You are expected to be a wife, to be docile with no radical opinions. All one is good for is to carry water on your head, be a good wife and bear children, nothing more.

What would you like the world to know about YOU? What life experience, challenge or achievement do you want to share? I am currently working towards my first degree in Irrigation Engineering.

What are you most passionate about and what are you doing with that passion? I'm mostly passionate about my writing and my poetry.

How have the women and girls around you helped you to get to where you are today? My mother is a strong 'get up and go' type feminist. She believes that failure is no reason to stop especially for a woman and our inner strength should drive us to achieve more and be more as women.

Describe yourself in one word: "I am... quirky

Complete this sentence: "To be a girl or woman today, is to be..." The sun to your world. You provide all you can but they may not necessarily appreciate your presence. That doesn't mean you should stop, for without you the world wouldn't exist in all its beauty.
