Campaigning Women

Woman's Hour

Available for over a year

Woman's Hour looks back at campaigns led by women in 2012. Among guests this year, we hear from Stephen Lawrence's mother Doreen about waiting almost 19 years to see her son's killers convicted of his murder. From mothers against violence in Northern Ireland to Malala Yousafzai in Pakistan, we ask what it takes to lead a campaign. With studio guests Camila Batmanghelidjh, founder and director of the charity Kids Company, and Laura Bates from The Every Day Sexism project, an online campaign. Presented by Jane Garvey Producer Steven Williams.
