Beyond Neoliberalism Series: Imagining a feminist future with Sanyu Awori

There is a wealth of African feminist academic and activist research and knowledge on neoliberalism and its impacts in the majority world. Yet, this knowledge has, for the most part, been removed from conversations on neoliberalism and its ideological and policy tenets and generally disregarded which is a function and consequence of neoliberalism itself.Recognizing this ActionAid International, Akina Mama wa Afrika and The Nawi Collective  co-convened a series of conversations among African feminists challenging neoliberalism and proposing alternatives towards a collective vision for the African continent and its people. The first of these conversations was held in Nairobi in February 2025This podcast series: Beyond Neoliberalism ( Weaving a feminist future together) is a series of conversations borne out of the convening held in February 2025, that will interrogate, propose, shape and document pan-African feminist narratives beyond neoliberalism.  This is done in recognition that we are building on decades worth of work. Our intention is to contribute to reinvigorating, documenting and amplifying. connecting key movements, thinkers, creatives and activists.In today’s episode we will delve into an overview of what a feminist economy looks like, exploring the different elements of the feminist economy through thematic sectors such as decent work, agriculture etc with our guest Sanyu Awori (AWID)The Beyond Neoliberalism Series is produced with the financial support of Action Aid International.Follow Action Aid:Facebook: ActionAidInstagram: Actionaid internationalTikTok: @actionaidinternationalLinkedIn: ActionAidYouTube: ActionAid InternationalGet in touch with us!Instagram: @nawi.africaTwitter: @NawiAfricaWebsite: www.nawi.africa
