This episode discusses difficult issues including sexual violence and suicide.

“You have thousands of cases and you have one judge. So every day you go to the court, they say come back tomorrow. The families they just get tired.”

Miatta Grey is a woman with a very personal mission. She’s the founder of ‘Sister’s Hand’ - an organisation in Liberia which supports victims of gender-based violence – having herself survived rape and domestic abuse. She was also badly injured through female genital mutilation - or FGM - in a ceremony that killed her sister.

She – like many campaigners within Liberia’s civil society – have long been pressurising the government to improve the situation. But she says things actually got worse under the last government.

So what needs to be done to protect women from sexual violence in Liberia?
