CAIRO — Life is a thought, and thoughts do not die, no matter how much time has passed. They remain engraved in our minds until death as long as we believe in them, defend them and aim to spread them and implement them firmly. These words are engraved in the mind of a 29-year-old woman who sought a better future for women and dedicated her life to defending their causes.
Yasmine Ibrahim, a women’s rights activist, is a woman who dreamed of an idea and succeeded in implementing it. She established on June 16, 2013, an online digital museum to document the role of women in the success of the January 25 Revolution, when the Egyptian people revolted against the regime of then-President Hosni Mubarak under the slogan “Bread, Freedom and Social Justice.” The Digital Museum of Women tells the stories of women’s struggles and sacrifices during the revolution.
