Lesson Learnt:
- Not easy to develop progressive interpretations in a society that is still patriarchal. But this strategy created community awareness that alternatives are possible, that interpretations of 3 laws system are not the only ones;
- The strategies not ‘plays’ in ‘stagnant space’, but, its play in the dynamic situations and patriarchal domination; so that, not automatically women have rights to land ownership, even the results have exist in more than 1 domain--- not linear or relative results
