The Institute of Global Value Inquiry (IGVI) invites applications from scholars specialising in African feminist philosophies to join the African Gender Equality Research Group.
The initiative aims to bring together researchers across Africa to explore and critically engage with African philosophies, values, and norms within the context of global values. The researchers in the group will undertake innovative research and advocacy on African feminist philosophies, gender equality discourses, women’s empowerment and rights, decoloniality, and Indigenous knowledge on women’s empowerment.
This research group aims to address socio-cultural, political, and economic obstacles to gender equality and dynamics while fostering the exchange of ideas across Africa, and between Africa and other regions and continents. The group will host conferences to share research findings, aiming for roughly two events each year. The group’s scholars will actively participate in IGVI’s annual conference and contribute to the Journal of Global Value Inquiry.
