With expressive drawings, the Egyptian caricaturist Doaa El-Adl casts light on to the situation of many women around the world. From the perspective of a political cartoonist, she aptly illustrates how social norms, traditions and even laws shape the lives, self-determination and freedom of women in a dramatic way.

Doaa El-Adl draws for women, not about them.
Her spot-on drawings report, move and touch the viewer.

"I empower women through my art. Not just because I am a woman, I always tend to empower the party that is being weakened." (Doaa El-Adl)
