Sanaa Makawi has been advocating for women's rights in Sudan since 2010. As a member of SWRC, and while also working for the Institute for Health and Rights in Sudan, Sanaa works to ensure sexual and reproductive health and rights are seen as human rights.

Since the revolution started in Sudan in December 2018, Sanaa has been on the streets, alongside thousands of other women, to peacefully demand democracy, women’s rights, and an end to oppression. Inter Pares had the chance to talk with Sanaa at the 2019 Women Deliver conference in Vancouver about women's rights in Sudan, women’s role in the revolution, and what's next.
