Zeina Mutola hosts a radio programme tracking down cases of early marriage near Mozambique’s capital, Maputo. Traditionally, some mothers teach their daughters to become wives at a very early age, leading to health problems and school drop-out. Zeina uses the power of open conversation on the radio and works with the police and social services to rescue girls who are stuck in bad situations.
