麻豆社

In this two-part documentary on 麻豆社 World Service, Egyptian journalist Mona Eltahawy meets the women who are trying to be heard in Arab countries and asks whether traditional societies are ready for the change they are agitating for.

The Arab Spring was never about gender equality, but many women became alarmed when their uprisings went unrewarded and the men that were keen to have them crying for their freedom were not so happy to relinquish power once the dust had settled.
