How discrimination impacts African women in activism
Online

A workshop with Ina-Maria Shikongo

Description:

How can urgent topics like climate crisis, wars, human crises be targeted? Why are crises like the one in DR Congo not be stopped after decades of war?

Ina-Maria Shikongo will explain the role of Black African women in activism. Further, Ina-Maria will talk about white backed campaigns who are heavily financially supported in comparison to African campaigns. What is the effect of poorly financed campaigns and how is this related to racism and climate (in)justice?
