Saudi Arabia and women's right to drive | All About Women 2018

In September 2017, the Saudi Arabian government announced it was lifting its long-standing ban on women driving cars. The decision was an historic milestone for Saudi women’s rights, and reflected a growing women’s movement in the region. The Right to Drive campaign was begun by the Saudi engineer, writer and activist Manal al-Sharif, and today’s podcast is an extract of her presentation at All About Women 2018.
