On The Blue Couch with Ruth Murambadoro - Research Scholar

In this 'On The Blue Couch' episode, I caught up with Dr Ruth Murambadoro, a senior lecturer in the Wits School of Governance. Ruth is a political science graduate from the University of Pretoria whose research interests include women, transitional justice, gender justice, peacebuilding and politics of the Global South. She is currently working on the project, *‘Gender justice and narratives of violence by women in post-colonial Zimbabwe*,’ which studies women’s social movements in Zimbabwe and the diaspora to produce new insights on how networks of women provide avenues for healing, justice and peace, outside the auspices of the state. She is the author of a monograph entitled ["Transitional justice in Africa: The case of Zimbabwe"] which was published in 2020, and has [written extensively](https://scholar.google.co.za/citation...) on reconciliation and the politics thereof. We spoke about her journey as a Zimbabwean student in the South African academic landscape and some of the lessons she learnt during her time as a student. She also touched on some of her experiences as an academic supervisor and a researcher whose current work blossomed from her master's research.
