FAHAMU

Fahamu has a vision of the world where people organise to emancipate themselves from all forms of oppression, recognise their social responsibilities, respect each other’s differences, and realise their full potential. Fahamu strengthens and nurtures the movement for social justice in Africa by generating knowledge to serve activism, bridging the gap between theory and practice , creating learning for, by and across movements, amplifying Africa-centred voices, perspectives and solutions in policy and decision-making at all levels and creating platforms for analysis and debate. 

Fahamu hopes to achieve increased democratisation of political, social and economic spaces creating meaningful change based on a people-centred progressive agenda. Fahamu is distinctively placed as a pan-African organisation supporting and working collaboratively with social movements over the long term. Rather than imposing generic solutions to address the needs of and to strengthen movements, Fahamu is committed to ensuring that our interventions are relevant, timely and significant to the movements we serve.

Programmatic areas:

1.Adilisha: Education for Social Justice

2.Utetezi: Africa-centred advocacy

3.Pambazuka: Platforms for analysis & debate

4.Tuliwaza: Knowledge generation

Fahamu has offices in Kenya, Senegal and the UK.

Fahamu a une vision du monde où les gens s’organisent pour s’émanciper de toutes les formes d’oppression, reconnaissent leurs responsabilités sociales, respectent les différences des autres et réalisent leur plein potentiel. Fahamu renforce et nourrit le mouvement pour la justice sociale en Afrique en générant des connaissances au service de l’activisme, en comblant le fossé entre la théorie et la pratique, en créant un apprentissage pour, par et à travers les mouvements, en amplifiant les voix, les perspectives et les solutions centrées sur l’Afrique dans les politiques et les décisions à tous les niveaux et en créant des plateformes d’analyse et de débat. 

Fahamu espère parvenir à une démocratisation accrue des espaces politiques, sociaux et économiques en créant des changements significatifs basés sur un programme progressiste centré sur les personnes. Fahamu se distingue par sa position d’organisation panafricaine qui soutient et travaille en collaboration avec les mouvements sociaux sur le long terme. Plutôt que d’imposer des solutions génériques pour répondre aux besoins des mouvements et les renforcer, Fahamu s’engage à ce que ses interventions soient pertinentes, opportunes et significatives pour les mouvements qu’elle sert.

Domaines programmatiques :

1.Adilisha : Education pour la justice sociale

2.Utetezi : Plaidoyer centré sur l’Afrique

3.Pambazuka : Plateformes d’analyse et de débat

4.Tuliwaza : Production de connaissances

Fahamu a des bureaux au Kenya, au Sénégal et au Royaume-Uni.
