All those in Uganda, who are able to bypass the criminal regime's internet blockade - big up yourselves! Pass around the message. Let everyone know how to do it. They cut off the internet in order to hide rigging and atrocities. Record everything and share with the world.

As AMwA, we engaged with the Pact for the Future because we believe it could kickstart the post-2030 agenda, one informed by the successes and lessons of the 2030 Agenda, but also honest about today’s poly-crises. Although we had hoped for stronger commitments on the feminist alternatives we have been advancing, bodily autonomy, climate justice, financing what truly works for women and girls in their diversity, and the right to development in the Global South, these remain gaps in the Pact.

And that is exactly the work before us: to keep pushing until these feminist visions are no longer seen as optional add-ons, but as the very foundation of how we imagine and build the future.
For Africa and for the women and girls of Africa, the pact for the future must become a living framework of reparatory justice, debt justice, and gender justice. It must repair yesterday, invest in today, and give us a tomorrow we can truly call ours.

Eunice Musiime- Executive Director, Akina Mama wa Afrika.

The Pact for the Future presents another opportunity for Africa to turn Promises into Action and turbocharge the SDGs. As Akina Mama wa Afrika, we do believe that global frameworks do matter and have a role to play. From the Beijing Declaration to the SDGs, every framework was considered transformative. Yet over the years, progress remains dismal, especially for African citizens, women, and girls who carry the brunt of poverty, debt, conflict, and climate shocks.

We recognise that Africa has its own Agenda 2063, which provides a blueprint for our development pathway. In the development of the Pact for the Future, the African voice and aspirations were not adequately represented.
To ensure that the Pact delivers on its promises, implementation and review for Africa, these critical areas must be addressed:

❇️Reparatory justice.
❇️Debt justice.
❇️Militarisation and Democracy
❇️Care as a political issue.

‘What do African women want?’ Juliet Nangamba highlights key feminist demands and propositions on the climate crisis that include a systems change to enable the change that needs to happen.

Highlights from #BonnConference2025: Today marked the start of gender negotiations after a 3-day workshop reviewing the previous Gender Action Plan (GAP). The goal? A bold, well-resourced plan with clear implementation paths. 🧵

If we can’t feed ourselves, can we truly say we are free? 🌾✊🏿
This Africa Liberation Week 2025, AMwA joins the chorus of Pan-African feminist voices to ask: What does true liberation look like if we cannot feed ourselves?

On 22nd May, from 3:00 PM – 5:00 PM EAT, we invite you to a virtual dialogue with feminist organizers, farmers, agroecologists, policy influencers, and food justice movements across the continent. Together, we will unpack the deep intersections between African food systems and our liberation.

For generations, African women have fed the continent—yet colonial dispossession, corporate capture, land grabs, and extractive systems have robbed us of our agency. Through this dialogue and campaign, AMwA will amplify an intersectional feminist response to reclaim our land, seed, kitchens, markets, and knowledge.

This space is about radical imagination, community strategy, and feminist resistance. It's a call to action: to reframe food justice as part of our generational liberation project.

Join us!

📅 Date: Wednesday, 22nd May 2025

@brianglenntv What a stupid question!

[Akina Mama wa Afrika @amwaafrika]

"Article 2, Article 9, and Article 11 of the Paris Agreement, specifically Article 9.1, states that developed countries have an obligation to provide financial resources to assist developing countries with respect to mitigation and adaptation. Article 9.3 further mandates developed countries to take the lead in mobilizing climate finance from various sources, instruments, and channels, recognizing the significant role that public funds will play in achieving these objectives." - @FaithLumonya, Economic Justice and Action Lead at AMwA speaks at the #CCE_Ug2024 | #JustEnergyTransition

[Akina Mama wa Afrika @amwaafrika]

As African feminists, our work goes beyond gender mainstreaming. We believe that achieving gender equality in the context of climate justice and the energy transition will require that we shift power and resources. As feminists, we acknowledge that shifting power is central to ensuring just, inclusive, and equitable approaches, whether in regard to climate finance or the energy sector. - @FaithLumonya, the Economic Justice and Climate Action Lead at AMwA, speaks at the #CCE_Ug2024 | #JustEnergyTransition

Many Zambians are unaware of this due to a flawed consultation process and lack of transparency. It is essential to remember that laws should serve the people and require their agreement.@HHichilema

[juliet nangamba @mitchnan]

In recent months, the Seed Control and Certification Institute in Zambia's Ministry of Agriculture has been advocating for amendments to the Seeds Laws to colonial-era regulations to favor corporate interests.

As we commemorate #WorldEnvironmentDay, focusing on land restoration, desertification, and drought resilience, we must know that our planet's survival is hinged on our ability to rid ourselves of the current destructive economic models.
