Early life

Casimiro is the founder, and president from 2006 to 2015, of Fórum Mulher.[3]

Casimiro is the founder and the first national coordinator of the Women and Law in Southern Africa Research and Education Trust (WLSA), based in Mozambique, and since 2015 she has been WLSA's Mozambique board president.[3]

Casimiro is a sociology professor at the Centre of African Studies, Eduardo Mondlane University in Maputo, where she specialises in women's and human rights, feminist movements, development issues, and participatory democracy.[1]
