From his mother, whose own mother died giving birth to her; to the very first survivors of sexual violence that he treated at Panzi Hospital, Dr. Mukewge illustrates how we can all learn from the power and resilience of women to heal our world. The Power of Women explores how corruption, violence and rape as a weapon of war are inextricably linked, and how the global community has a responsibility to take action and demand accountability.
