A week ago, I attended a multidisciplinary event focusing on gender and One-Health approach in Nairobi.
Speakers, including scientists from around the globe, did not mention the International Women's Day (IWD), being marked today, but, somehow, just aligned.
At a different three-hour IWD precursor event later, the general focus was on women as victims of gender-based violence.
It felt like a place to just come and lament, and it was good.
