'Women bear brunt of Zimbabwe’s crisis'

 International Women’s Day is celebrated on March 8 every year to mark the economic, political and social achievements of women past, present and future. WRS’s Pete Forster takes a look at the status of women in one of the most difficult political and economic environments in the world: Zimbabwe. He spoke to Rutendo Hadebe from The Women’s Coalition, a group of Zimbabwean women’s rights organisations.
