for a door gun, sierra leone president is approved a law to legalize abortion. it'll now go to parliament. president julius motto bill made the announcement during his closing remarks at the africa conference on sexual health and rights on friday. saying that at a time in the world when sexual and reproductive health rights for when are either being overturned or threatened, we are proud that sierra leone can once again lead with progressive reform. ok, spencer coke up is the head of advocacy and movement building of the feminist advocacy group. purposeful she says, the announcement from president bill was an important moment for women and girls in sierra leone. i was extremely emotional yesterday hearing it stated from the president publicly that says that his governments, that his cabinet approved this because it signified to me that you know, the talk about taking. ready the how the lives,
5:27 pm
the choices of girls and women was being actual eyes and being presented as, as, as we're not just talking. we're taking action on this. and personally, i've been involved in this campaign for we've got to pass right through that bill to now and i know the people personally, you've been working on this as well along with us here and not just purposeful but other organizations. and so it wasn't extremely emotional moment to know that this has been publicly in can all talk about it now as well. so yes, we are moving forward with this. this is going to happen. there is presidential will for this, the governmental will for this we do in session and recognize that women and girls are important and yes, extremely emotion i can, i can explain to you are the countries have been moving to liberalize laws for access to the health services and right and termination of pregnancy and that
5:28 pm
countries and we still see this and we hope that this is going to be a trend where small country, what we're showing that we can get away in terms of recognizing that when women and girls in countries campaigning for years and years and years and saying, stating this is about our lives, this is about our lives that we can listen to. it's a movement and i but i believe it can bring change and i believe it will bring changes that were over $900.00 delegates in the hall yesterday representing $41.00 different countries across africa and their governments and their ministers were there and listening as well. so we believe this can definitely have an impact in the crowded tons of occupied east jerusalem. it's difficult for many palestinians to create green environments, but now a project training palestinian women to bring bees and to keep b as rather as bringing color and plant life to the urban areas. donald smith reports from occupied east jerusalem. these are perhaps the only new homes that
5:29 pm
have been allowed to proliferate an occupied east, jerusalem without the risk of israel pulling them down. yeah, natalie? yeah. okay. and this is one living organism. just allow cassock and highway. and the co de la la beekeeping in a community project that provides palestinian women with jobs and income 75 percent of the women in east jerusalem aren't formerly employed off there. and as the car form an issue, it's not actually a lot of people are afraid of b is. but for me, those even a verse and the koran about b is they are bless, early when you study them and discover their organisation, their system. it's perfect. nabarra the bees need plant to the project is also bringing greenery to the densely packed streets of east jerusalem. the mean important challenge is that there were missing air land. we don't have lands and the roofs, it might be the solution to fill the gap of the lock public open spaces in occupied
5:30 pm
east jerusalem. these radio authorities only permit palestinians to build on 17 percent of the land. so there's no room for green open spaces. introducing b hives encourages people to provide plants and bushes for the bees and whatever small space they have. now in this project started in 2019. they trained on 15 women as beekeepers, but it's become so popular that by 2024 they'll be 550 women making use of the terraces and rooftops of occupied east jerusalem as holmes. the small behind the honey is harvested only twice a year. and these urban b pollinating plants, much less likely to have been treated with herbicides than those around rural farmhouse allah and the new medicine i've got used to them. i'm not afraid of them . i even feel this chemistry between us should have this in cilla women's co op.
