S1E9 The Power of Activism and Women’s Movements
Manage episode 324628104 series 3330749
It is often the passion and activism of women’s movements that powers and transforms evidence to influence policy change. So how can we support activists and their movements and help create impact?
Bringing activists together with researchers and other experts is key as effective research and action on violence against women and violence against girls requires a holistic approach to knowledge sharing.
In this episode we hear some transformative success stories of activism in action, like the “One in Nine” Campaign in South Africa. We learn about some of the most impactful forms of advocacy and activism. And we find out how ‘small but mighty’ activist projects can be just as impactful as more wide scale global movements.
Our guests are:
Nwabisa Jama Shai, Specialist Researcher, South African Medical Research Council
Charbel Maydaa, Founder & General Director, MOSAIC
Natsnet Ghebrebrhan, VAW Prevention Coordinator, Raising Voices
Your hosts are:
Elizabeth Dartnall, Executive Director, SVRI
Angelica Pino, Grants Manager and Capacity Strengthening Specialist, SVRI
