Presentación
WoMin is a Pan African ecofeminist alliance that partners with women and communities impacted by extractivist-driven development, the climate, and interlocking crises. We bring attention to the harmful effects of extractivism on African peasant and working-class women, and we actively support women in building movements that champion a post-extractivist, ecologically just, and women-centred future for Africa.
Misión
WoMin’s mission is to support and amplify the voices of African women, particularly those from peasant and working-class backgrounds, who are impacted by extractivism. We strive to make visible the harmful effects of extractivism and advocate for an African post-extractivist, ecologically-just, and women-centred development model. Through allyship and solidarity, we empower women’s organising and movement-building efforts. Our work is dedicated to fostering sustainable and just alternatives that prioritise the well-being of women, communities, and the environment.
Committed to being true allies of grassroots movements, we prioritise this across all our efforts.
