Summary:

Nomcebo Manzini is a busy woman. As the regional director for Southern Africa and the Indian Ocean islands of the UN's recently created Entity for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women - popularly known as UN Women - she is constantly on the road from one country to another, addressing public gatherings, attending conferences and strategizing with government officials and women's activists alike. Africa Renewal's managing editor, Ernest Harsch, was fortunate to catch Ms. Manzini at her home in Johannesburg, South Africa, in late March, during a brief stopover in her travels.
