Droits des femmes

Nous nous concentrons sur le soutien aux organisations qui create safe spaces for African women à exercise their rights towards life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

These organisations and groups strive to eliminate religious, culturel, politique, économique, legal and social fundamentalisms that restrict women’s agency and human rights. They may also strive to eliminate effects of these larger fundamentalisms, like violence against women, or property rights that restrict ownership, héritage, accéder, control of assets, and citizenship.

These efforts may result in projects that support policy development and reform, feminist movement-building, rechercher, or training. They may also seek to educate and dispel negative stereotypes of African women.

À son tour, ces organisations chercheront à atteindre les objectifs suivants:

  • Increased ratification and domestication of women’s instruments, agreements, laws and protocols (like the Protocole de Maputo and other International Standards).
  • Strengthened feminist movements at national and regional levels, including more forums and education for women.
