Isabelle Djibgodi Améganvi Manavi (born 3 September 1961) is a Togolese lawyer and politician. She was elected to Togo's parliament in 2007. She is well-known for orchestrating a sex strike in August 2012, protesting electoral reforms that favored the party in power. In 2013, she was elected to the National Assembly a second time. Early life and legal career Améganvi was born on 3 September 1961 in the town of Kpalimé, Togo, the sixth of eight children. She received her primary education at the Evangelical School Hanoukopé. She enrolled at the collège Notre Dame des Apôtre and the Tokoin Lycée in Lomé, Togo's capital. Afterwards, she studied at Lycée Jean-Baptiste Say in Paris, France, and received her degree in 1983. Améganvi earned a law degree at Paris I University in 1989 and a master of law at the University of Benin the following year. Améganvi was a trainee lawyer under Ahlin K. Komlan in Lomé from 1994 to 1996. In February 1997, she was called to the bar in Togo. As a lawyer, she represented students, political prisoners, journalists, trade unionists and other human rights activists. In the 1990s, she joined the Togolese League of Human Rights and the Collective of Associations of Women. Ameganvi later served on the legal committee of the Evangelical Presbyterian Church of Togo.

However, in 2010 she was arbitrarily excluded from the party and lost her seat in the assembly. She is the leader of the women's rights division of the group Let's Save Togo, an alliance of nine civil society groups and seven opposition parties and movements.

The Gnassingbe family has ruled Togo for 45 years. She was inspired by the sex strike of Liberian women led by Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, who in 2003 used the tactic to push for peace during wartime. In addition, Ameganvi encouraged women to dress only in red pants to resist the imprisonment of 120 opposition supporters. "We have power to change things. We do not
