F Njahîra Wangarî - Book Chapter
Abstract
"This chapter blends African oral and written narratives, lived experiences with a genetic chronic disability and a Roman Catholic upbringing. These will be interrogated to illustrate the role of alternative explanations in influencing advocacy and activism for the lives, wellbeing, dignity and inclusion of persons with disabilities. Particularly, this chapter is an exploration of self-identity and how persons with disabilities are conditioned to view ourselves in specific ways while highlighting alternative perceptions available is presented by the author. It engages the works of several African and African-descendent authors who feature persons with disabilities as characters in their books and relies on narrative prosthesis as the basis for this engagement."

Final evaluation consultancy of women’s rights programme, in Ethiopia, Kenya and Uganda
[Re-posting to the discussion section, as advised by the Gender & Evaluation team]
The AWESOME partnership is seeking a consultancy team with members in Ethiopia, Kenya and Uganda to conduct a final evaluation. This evaluation is a critical learning and accountability opportunity for us to reflect on our five year programme.
AWESOME is an advocacy programme that aims to support women’s movements in Ethiopia, Kenya and Uganda to be strengthened, less fragmented and more representative of diverse groups of women, including women with disabilities (WWDs). We focus on two themes of sexual and gender based violence (SGBV) and women’s participation and leadership.
We are keen to hear from evaluators about their proposed evaluation methods. We would love to hear from teams that integrate a feminist evaluation lens and use participatory approaches to centre the voices, knowledge and lived/living experiences of diverse women. Intersectionality and inclusion of diverse women is important to us.
The deadline for proposals is 19 January 2025. We hope to begin the evaluation in February 2025.
