FEMNET - African Women's Development and Communication Network Details
FEMNET – the African Women's Development and Communication Network is a pan- African, membership-based feminist network based in Nairobi with over 700 members across 46 African countries. FEMNET envisions an African society where gender equality is achieved and women and girls enjoy all their rights and live in dignity. FEMNET exists to facilitate and coordinate the sharing of experiences, ideas, information, and strategies for human rights promotion among African women's organizations through networking, communication, capacity-building and advocacy at the regional and international levels.Since inception in 1988, FEMNET has played a leading role in building the women's movement in Africa and ensuring that women and girls' voices are amplified, and their needs, priorities, and aspirations are prioritized in key policy dialogues and outcomes that have direct and indirect impact on their lives. FEMNET has established her niche as a nucleus serving to mobilize African women and girls to influence, lobby and advocate for the domestication and implementation of commitments made by African governments to the advancement of gender equality and realization of women's rights. Such commitments include the global and continental declarations on gender equality and women's rights that African governments are signatories to such as the Convention on the Elimination of All forms of Discrimination against Women and Girls (CEDAW), Beijing Platform for Action (BPfA), ICPD Programme of Action, and the 2030 Agenda on Sustainable Development (SDGs) at the global level and the Protocol to the African Charter on Human and People's Rights on the Rights of Women in Africa (Maputo Protocol) at the regional level.
