The women behind the work.
Muasi Telema was founded and signed by Congolese women jurists in Kinshasa on 10 March 2020. Here are our founding signatories, and how we are governed.
Six women, named in our statutes.
Our statutes list the committee roles and the signatories separately and do not map names to roles — so we don't either. Full profiles and photos will be added with each person's consent.
Ilonga Ayitoma Micheline
A Congolese woman jurist specialized in family law, and the presiding founder of Muasi Telema. Read her profile and download her resume.
We name our founders with dignity and nothing more — no invented titles, no borrowed credentials. Tap a name to see what's coming. [In Build]
Two organs, by our statutes.
Article 8 of our statutes sets out how decisions are made and who is accountable.
The General Assembly
Our supreme organ — all effective members. It approves the activity reports, votes the annual budget, and elects (and can revoke) the committee.
The Steering Committee
The executive organ that runs day-to-day work between assemblies.
Steering Committee roles
President
Vice-President
Secretary-Rapporteur
Treasurer
Officer for Technical Affairs
We list the roles as our statutes do — without naming who holds each one — until those details are confirmed and shared with consent. [In Build]
There is room beside us.
Stand with us.
We are especially looking for women jurists, mediators and volunteers who want to help families stand.
