UMAR/50 years: Women's problems from 50 years ago persist today, says founder

SAPO12 September 2026 at 05:00

UMAR celebrates this year its 50th anniversary, marking half a century of the organization's existence. The occasion serves as a moment of reflection on the progress made and the challenges that still persist in the fight for women's rights.

The founder of UMAR, Maria Idalina Rodrigues, expressed her position on the current situation, considering that the problems affecting women 50 years ago continue to be observed today. Her testimony shows that, despite the time that has passed, many of the difficulties faced by women remain unchanged.

Rodrigues defends that gender equality and women's rights continue to demand struggle, education and mobilization from society. These are, according to the founder, the essential tools to continue advancing in this area.

The reflection of the founder of UMAR comes in the context of the organization's anniversary celebrations, emphasizing the importance of keeping awareness about gender inequalities alive and the need to continue working for women's emancipation.
