Overview
Akina Mama wa Afrika (AMwA), a feminist pan-African organization building feminist leadership and collective power aims to deconstruct intersectional systems of oppression and advance gender justice. Under its strategic plan, AMwA aims to advance women’s political leadership, push for feminist alternatives within the economic justice and climate action space, and ensure that African women, girls, and gender-expansive persons realize their sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR). AMwA aims to increase societal acceptance and recognition of SRHR by cultivating supportive narratives, media engagements, and public financing that counter anti-rights movement efforts at the global, regional, and national levels.
