AFECOJU is a young feminist-led organisation founded in 2016 by 5 women’s rights activists with expertise or interest in rural development. The aim of setting up the organisation was to help fight against the violence, marginalization and exclusion of women in society. The grant will be used to support AFECOJU’s activities for the 2020 Sixteen Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence in the province of Inkisi/Kisantu – DRC. The project will use culture, arts and sports as well as movement building strategies to create awareness and a movement around the importance of ensuring women and girls’ mental health and wellbeing and the need to address VAWG.
