Abstract
This article, published on March 8, 2018, profiles Mastercard Foundation Scholar Tanyaradzwa Chinyukwi, a self-declared ‘societal renegade’ who excelled in STEM, challenging beliefs in female inferiority. Driven by Zimbabwe’s economic crisis, she launched a campaign advocating for girls’ education and reproductive health. She also co-founded ZAZI Growers’ Network to empower vulnerable women in the agricultural sector.
