Unity Dow (née Diswai; born 23 April 1959) is a Motswana lawyer, human rights activist, specially elected member of parliament, and a writer. She formerly served as a judge on the High Court of Botswana and in various government ministries. Born in the Bechuanaland Protectorate to a seamstress and a farmer, who insisted on their children obtaining an education, Dow grew up in a traditional rural village before modernisation. She earned a law degree in 1983 from the University of Botswana and Swaziland, though her studies were completed in Swaziland and University of Edinburgh, Scotland, as Botswana had no law school at the time. After her graduation, Dow opened the first all-woman law firm in Botswana and in 1997 became the first woman to be appointed as a judge to the country's High Cour

  • Unity Dow, född 23 april 1959 i Mochudi i Bechuanalandprotektoratet, är en botswansk jurist, aktivist och författare. Hon studerade vid universiteten i Botswana, Swaziland och Edinburgh. Vid återkomsten till hembyn kom många och bad henne om råd, vilket fick henne att besluta sig för att bli advokat. Både som advokat och som aktivist kämpar hon för barns rättigheter, mot våldtäkt och för gifta kvinnors äganderätt. Hennes verksamhet har lett till en rad ändringar och tillägg i Botswanas lagar, bland annat att inte endast barn till manliga botswanier blir medborgare i Botswana. (sv)
