July 31 is International African Women’s Day, decreed in 1974 at the first Congress of the Pan-African Women’s Organization (PAWO), formerly the African Women’s Conference. On July 31, 1962, women from all over Africa converged on Tanzania to create this first women’s organization.
The host of Le matin du Nord, Elsie Miclisse, welcomes four women to discuss the importance of this day and the living conditions of African women.
