Project
Msingi Trust with support from Voice is implementing a project titled “Feminism and Faith: 100 Voices for Change” in Western Kenya and Nairobi. The aim of the project is to challenge the cultures of silence within faith, investigate women’s multiple social-cultural identities and how those identities intersect or clash in the journey to freedom, self-realization, and the pursuit of leadership within faith communities. The intended project outcomes are as follows:
- Women and Women groups in churches and theological institutions are willing and able to work on their own empowerment.
- Support the development of joint action plans to influence policy practice, attitudes and behaviours of other social actors towards a feminist faith in churches and theological institutions,
- Women in churches and theological institutions (as individuals or groups), as well as their alliances, coalitions and networks, have the capacity to use a range of tools and instruments to influence key decision makers
