Josephine's Story

Every two weeks she still walks in and out of court corridors.

Josephine thought losing her husband would be the hardest thing she would ever survive. Within weeks of burying him, the house they had built together was no longer hers. The land she had farmed for years was no longer hers either. It went to his brother.

For seventeen years, she has watched the rains fall on land she is not allowed to touch. She went to the elders. She waited. Nothing changed.

Every two weeks she still walks in and out of court corridors with the same file in her hands. Through WRC, she has found a supportive community and counseling as she continues this long walk.
