Isabelle Améganvi

Isabelle Améganvi is a Togolese lawyer and politician representing the Union Forces for Change party. She is the leader of the women’s rights division of the group Let’s Save Togo, which is dedicated to advocating for democracy and economic justice in Togo.

At a rally in 2012, Améganvi called for the women of Togo to go on a sex strike against the recent electoral reforms, which made it easier for the ruling party of the past 45 years to remain in power. The idea was to make Togolese men think about the motherland, release prisoners, and motivate them to take action against the ruling elite.
