Dandara Touré
Dandara Touré (born 1 October 1951) is a Malian politician. Touré has worked in education and women's rights for many years. She was appointed Minister for the Promotion of Women, Children and the Family in the cabinet of Cissé Mariam Kaïdama Sidibé on 16 February 2012. The 2012 Malian coup d'état meant that she was removed from office just 34 days later. Touré has since campaigned for democratic reforms in the country, opposing changes to the constitution which would have increased the powers of the president.
