Topic: Advancing the Feminist Cause to Create a More Just African society

In association with ABF Göteborg

The gender gap in Africa is significant. If gender diversity is not embraced, millions of women and Africa’s general social and economic development will not advance to its maximum potential. In line with SDG 5 which seeks to promote gender equality and empower all women and girls, this webinar aims to demonstrate how feminists’ voices and actions may assist in creating a gender-equal Africa.
