'Sex for grades': BBC investigation at African universities
Reporters went undercover at the University of Lagos and the University of Ghana
The hashtag #SexForGrades has been trending worldwide on Twitter. It's in response to an investigation by BBC Africa Eye that uncovered sexual harassment at the University of Lagos and the University of Ghana. Female reporters were sexually harassed, propositioned and put under pressure by senior lecturers at the institutions. We speak to one of the reporters, Kiki Mordi, and get reaction from people across Africa.
Also, Extinction Rebellion activists are protesting in cities around the world, including Berlin, Amsterdam and Sydney. They're calling for urgent action on global climate and wildlife emergencies. We'll hear from some of them.
And in Iran, an Instagram star who became famous for drastically changing her appearance to look like US actress Angelina Jolie has been arrested. We'll find out why from BBC Persian's women's affairs reporter.
