Meet the women doing extraordinary things for the future of our country.

Reading each and every profile of women doing extraordinary things in our society has given me a deeper appreciation of what it is to be a woman. This year, once again, the Mail and Guardian recognises the magnificent work done by ordinary women. These trailblazers also work and walk among us every day. They are driven by the need to change our communities, our towns and villages and our world.

This year the M&G has compiled a list of women from as young as 17 to stalwarts who have seen it all at 80. These women are taking up space and ensuring their voices are heard to ensure that the coming generations have spaces in which they can talk about and tackle issues of patriarchy, gender-based violence, disabilities, the gender pay gap, politics and many others.
