The Ingonyama Trust and its implications for rural women regarding land acquisition: Sizani Ngubane responds to Kedibone Chembe

abstract Sizani Ngubane is the co-founder and Director of the Rural Women’s Movement (RWM). Today RWM is a coalition of more than 500 community-based organisations comprising a membership of 50,000 indigenous women and girls. As a member of the RWM, she has led campaigns that have dealt with issues of gender-based violence, access to education and land rights, property and inheritance rights for rural based women and girls. She has also been involved in providing advocacy training and lobbying National Parliament and policy-makers for policies that will promote equal rights of rural women and protect them in terms of judicial recourse and the right to own land in jurisdictions that are under traditional leadership. The organisation is currently planning to establish a Rural Women and Girls’ Agricultural Skills Training Centre. She is an awardee of the 2018 Woman of Distinction given by Non-Governmental Organisation Committee on the Status of Women in New York City (NGO CSW/NY) in recognition of her outstanding work and accomplishment in advancing women’s agendas.
