This podcast was made possible by HIVOS, the co-implementer of the Women@Work programe, and Leitepian and associates advocates. Dear Law is a women-led project focused on using storytelling and survivor-centred approaches. This project was inspired by the #MeToo movement, that prompted critical conversations towards accountability for sexual harassment. Dear Law project is to bring to the fore and amplify the voices and collective sexual harassment experiences of women in the legal profession with a view to disrupt the normalisation of sexual harassment.
