Botswana has "Men Sector" to deal with men's issues/rights

Via Marc A. Article here. Excerpt:

'The law in Botswana currently leans towards women when it deals with custody of children born out of wedlock.

As a result, some women, out of bitterness or for whatever reason, end up denying men access to their children.

The men, in that case, can't get legal help. While women's rights organisations booming all over the world advocate for women's rights, represented locally by Emang Basadi, men seem to be lagging behind in organising to form an organisation which can deal with men's rights and other issues that affect them.'
