> Beatrice Mateyo is a Malawian human rights and gender equality advocate. She is the Executive Director of the Coalition for the Empowerment of Women and Girls (CEWAG). In 2017, she was arrested after participating in a march against gender-based violence while carrying a placard reading Kubadwa ndi nyini sitchimo.
