WOW - Women Of The World Festival 2013: What's New In African Feminism?

African women are gaining force in music, writing and film, offering powerful and subversive views on gender, power and the future.

In partnership with the African Feminist Forum and the African Women’s Development Fund, this session looks at what is fresh in African feminist thought and action, and the relationship between diaspora and continent-
based activism. Speakers include Pontso Mafethe, Women’s Rights Manager at Comic Relief, Jessica Horn, writer and women’s rights consultant, and Rita Ray, renowned DJ and African music specialist. Chaired by Nana Darkoa Sekiayamah of the African Women’s Development Fund.

Held in the Front Room.
