The African Feminist Collective on Feminist-Informed Policies
@afipcollective.bsky.social
Nurturing a space for African Feminists to leverage their knowledge to respond to historic and contemporary injustices
At the 4th Ministerial Conference on Feminist Foreign Policy in France, we’re calling for feminist policy rooted in anti-imperialism, reparations and redistribution of resources, and solidarity with global South movements.

You can’t separate migration from capitalism, racism, and patriarchy. If we want liberation, we need to tear them all down. Borders aren’t broken. They work exactly as designed, to exclude, to discipline, to profit. That’s why we fight for abolition, not reform - @tonihaastrup.bsky.social

The Sahel isn’t just a site of coups, it’s a laboratory for imperial security regimes. EU, US & others arm militias, control movement & experiment with migration containment. Djibouti alone hosts US, China, France, Japan, Italy bases. These bases control our movement - @rosebellk.bsky.social

In 2025, white South Africans claiming refugee status in the US shows how migration systems uphold anti-Blackness. Borders were made to exclude Black, Brown & poor people, while others move freely - Guerline Jozef

Modern migration governance pretends to be about rights but it denies citizenship, enforces racialised borders, and reproduces global inequalities. Who moves, how, and where to, is shaped by the same powers that produce war, climate crises, and economic precarity - @tonihaastrup.bsky.social

Privileged white South Africans increasingly misuse “refugee” to describe discomfort with post-apartheid change, erasing the realities of true displacement.

Join us as we unpack the co-optation and commodification of refugee identity by settler groups.

Last week, we hosted peace activists from DRC + Sudan to determine a Feminist agenda for peace in the 2 countries.

“African women are resisting, mobilizing, and creating peace from the ground up. Why are they still treated as afterthoughts in formal peace processes?”

What needs to change? ⬇️
