For too long, Chamas have been reduced to āwomenās savings groups.ā
But through engaging with Chamas across different communities, we have seen something far more powerful.
We have seen women who were just building businesses and strengthening their economic independence now learning their rights, demanding accountability from their leaders, and organizing collectively around the issues affecting their lives and communities.
At Badili Africa, we see Chamas as more than informal financial spaces.
We see them as civic infrastructure.
Through these spaces, we are helping strengthen political consciousness, leadership confidence, collective organizing, and community participation among grassroots women.
The future of democratic participation is already being shaped in Chamas, salons, and the everyday spaces #WhereWomenGather.āš½
