⁦⁦@APMONAfrica⁩ ,my submission on the need to consolidate gender desegregated data into the civic tech tools for tracking parliamentary openness,is deeply rooted in the importance of centering gender issues in governance processes ⁦@amwaafrika⁩ #APMONAConference

[Jean Ngobi @JeanNgobi1]

Thrilled to have joined a learning tour at the @AfricParliament in Johannesburg. Ensuring that actors understand how the African parliament works is critical #Strengthen partnerships between civil society and the legislative bodies in Africa #APMONConference #OpenHouse

[Jean Ngobi @JeanNgobi1]

The @APMONAfrica conference is so timely as most countries in Africa prepare for elections.Citizens would wish to vote for progressive and accountable leadership which centers partnerships for voice and legislative openness @amwaafrika #APMONConference#OpenHouse

[Jean Ngobi @JeanNgobi1]

I was concerned that most legislators in Africa are deeply challenged by capacity gaps in legislation and playing the oversight role. We can spark the level of engagement in African parliaments through capacity strengthening ⁦⁦@amwaafrika⁩ #APMONConference #OpenHouse

# reparative processes should have a gender and feminist justice lens

[Jean Ngobi @JeanNgobi1]

@amwaafrika ,Here at the AU ECOSOC Citizen’s Forum in Equatorial Guinea, I got interested by the need to make a new social contract with African leaders, center transitional justice in the reparative processes in order to bolster Africa’s development and peace process @AUEcosocc

[Jean Ngobi @JeanNgobi1]

I was honored to share, thank you @ccgea1 for setting up this conversation . Elections are only inclusive , credible and participatory ,when citizens and actors enjoy their inalienable freedoms to speech and expression ,without censorship.

[Jean Ngobi @JeanNgobi1]

I agree with Hon.Asha Bashir, the deputy SG ,NARC Kenya, political parties should not only open the space, but ensure that the special interest structures and leagues for the women and youth are actively involved in all Party processes @amwaafrika @woman_kind
