BUILDING TRANSNATIONAL FEMINIST SOLIDARITY
AWDF and Black Women radicals are co-hosting a webinar on Health equity and power: Construire la solidarité féministe transnationale jeudi, 25 mars, 2021, à 4:00–6:00 PM EAT/9:00–11:00 AM EST/1:00-3:00 PM GMT.
Le webinaire réunira un panel diversifié d'intervenants, à savoir; Weema Askri: Initiative des jeunes homosexuels africains; Dr Ana Mocumbi: Lancet NCDI Commission de la pauvreté; Dr Caldwell L. Kia: University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill; Jaimee Swift: Black Women Radicals, Exposition Mafethe: AWDF and moderated by Nana Afua Brantuo: George Washington University.
This ground-breaking conversation will contribute to and deepen the debate on critical constructs that shape inequitable health policies and programmes for African, African descendant women and gender-expansive persons.
The transnational event cuts across structural geopolitical boundaries to showcase similarities in the challenges encompassing activism and the need for solidarity to harness our voices, resources and platforms for equitable women’s health futures.
Through a digitised tribute, the event will draw on current research and analysis of cross-cutting issues like non-communicable diseases and significant barriers to dignity in health-seeking such as poverty, state-driven violence and discrimination.
en outre, the tribute highlights a selection of individual and collective stories of women in Africa and the diaspora whose inspirational past and current initiatives dare to challenge these constructs.
The Health Equity and Feminist Solidarity event will build on existing African feminist power and collective to continue reflection and passion towards transnational identity and solidarity.
Look out for post-event resources which we will share on all our platforms.
