Since its inception in 2014, FIFAfrica has been the heartbeat of internet freedom advocacy across Africa. A space where activists, technologists, journalists, policymakers, and communities come together to shape the future of the open internet on the continent. What started as a conversation has grown into a movement. #FIFAfrica26 will convene more than 500 participants from more than 60 countries in Mauritius from September 28 to October 1, 2026. This promises to be the most powerful edition yet. Please note the deadlines for call for proposals and travel support. 🗒️Register here:tinyurl.com/4xt386e7 #InternetFreedomAfrica

Humbled to have offered a service to Uganda, Africa and beyond!!🌍 There is strength in collective voices.
@igagapy, @CEDOVIPuganda, reflected on the practical implications of implementing the @_AfricanUnion Convention on Ending Violence Against Women and Girls (AU-CEVAWG), particularly for Member States navigating resource and institutional constraints. She highlighted the importance of aligning continental ambition with national capacity, recognising that financing demands, reporting standards, and prosecution obligations under the Convention must be supported by realistic implementation pathways within the African Union system. #PauseForPurpose

Today marks Day 1 of the Public Dialogues in Pallisa aimed at intensifying awareness on Gender-Based Violence (GBV) and its growing linkages to climate change. Creating safe spaces for open conversations allows community members, leaders and stakeholders to collectively reflect.

When girls are connected, they can safely report abuse, can access information about their rights, can reach support networks and services and eventually reclaim their power.#EmpowermentThroughAndInnovation

We need to look at this conversation beyond policy discussion. This is a conversation about real homes, real struggles and real people trying to hold their lives together with dignity. #Uganda #CivilSociety #Remittances #ProtectionofSovereignityBill #Humanrights

Digital rights are human rights. Are yours protected? Across Africa, millions are coming online, but with every click, swipe, and scroll, digital consumers face growing risks: ⚠️ Exploitative terms of service ⚠️ Unregulated data harvesting ⚠️ Platforms designed without our realities in mind Who protects the African digital consumer? What rights do we truly have and how do we claim them? Join us for the next Safe Space Africa Webinar on Digital Consumer Protection for Africans. It's a critical conversation exploring the policies, platforms, and power structures shaping how Africans experience the internet and who gets left behind. You’ll hear from expert continental voices across tech, law, activism, and digital rights who are working to shift the narrative and push for accountability. Together, we'll unpack: ✅How digital products exploit users across the continent ✅The gendered and racial dimensions of digital harm ✅What meaningful consumer protection should look like in African contexts Date: Tuesday, August 26th, 2025 Time: 11:00AM WAT | 12:00PM CAT | 1:00PM EAT Register now: bit.ly/TechHer_Webinar Don't miss this special TechHer anniversary edition of the webinar.

The limited access and understanding to the existing legal frameworks shrink the freedom of expression and information due to fear of the unknown. #HerRightsToKnow @commonwealthorg @wougnet

Access to Justice,  Legal frameworks can perpetuate gender-based violence and limit women's access to justice. Laws that fail to address domestic violence, sexual harassment, and other forms of gender-based violence can exacerbate the problem. #HerRightToKnow @commonwealthorg

Disparities in access to technology and the internet can disproportionately affect women, esp in rural regions. Ltd access to digital tools hampers their ability to engage with information, participate in political processes, and express their views online. #HerRightToKnow
