TJNA envisions a just, prospering, self-reliant, and integrated Africa sustainably harnessing its resources to enable its people to lead a dignified life.

Grants to this Grantee
for support of Nawi’s thinking hub on social reproduction and care economies in Africa
Nawi – Afrifem Macroeconomics Collective and the Makerere Institute of Social Research (MISR) are co-creating a thinking hub to develop an African feminist theory and narrative of the care economy. The knowledge produced through the hub will contribute to broader decolonized theorizations on social reproduction from an African and Global South vantage point. This grant to Tax Justice Network Africa, which serves as the fiscal host for Nawi, will establish the thinking hub and enable Nawi and MISR to invest in institutional strengthening.
