Abstract/Description
Women play a pivotal role as changemakers within societies, and their influence extends far beyond conventional expectations. In an inspiring display of resilience and determination, six hundred and forty-five Maasai women gathered in in the NAPALAI grazing land cluster of Kiteto district, Tanzania, from 27 November to 4 December 2023. Their collective mission: to peacefully protest the encroachment by farmers on community-owned grazing land, despite being demarcated and gazetted by the Tanzanian government.
