About you (please use English): 

I hold B.A. Degree in Sociology and Development Studies obtained from National University of Lesotho. I also hold Special Degree and Honors Degree in Criminology Obtained fro University of Pretoria and now awaiting for examination of my finalized MA in Gender Studies with University of Pretoria. I am a Researcher currently working for the Commission for Gender Equality in South Africa. This Commission is an independent Constitutional body that ensures Government and Private Sector compliance in terms of mainstreaming gender within the policies and programmes to promote gender equality in the country. I have co-authored a chapter on Incentives to Attract and Retain Women in Science Engineering and Technology in South Africa. I have also co-authored a series of Internal Publications on Gender Based Violence in South Africa. Part of my work is also to assess compliance of South Africa in terms of the implementation of International Instruments and Regional Instruments geared towards promoting gender equality in the Country. Out of every publication produced, we produce Policy Briefs on the critical findings and hold policy dialogues with the Policy Makers. I have also worked on issues related to Sexuality.
