On International Women’s Day (8 March), MISA announces their annual list of MISA’s Women to Watch.  

Each year, we highlight the work and careers of dynamic­­ and inspirational southern African women who we believe embody the official United Nations theme for International Women’s Day 2014 and the theme designated by non-governmental organisations around the world.

We chose women who we see as rising stars in the region, women whose achievements to date are a promise of more great work to come, making them women to watch.

You will find profiles and interviews with the women in our e-magazines:
