Rhoda Kalema Is a Ugandan notable woman who worked hard to emancipate her fellow women as well as her community. She had her early training from Gayaya High School.

This tumultuous period was followed by some of the hard-earned rewards in form of different political posts, for her unwavering commitment. By this time, her role as a social-change agent for women’s issues had crystallised into associating her name with what could be called an early form of feminism.

Her smaller victories in this regard included hauling herself from semi-retirement to participate in politics with the motive of bettering life for her countrymen. In the larger scheme of things, she was responsible for the Kalema Commission’s Report on the laws of Marriage, Divorce and Inheritance.

It tasked the government to address issues of dignity and women’s rights, a struggle continued by recent efforts like the Women’s Rights Bill. Truly, one of those people whom the country has benefited from.
