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."

Event Description

As part of the Global Week for Justice, this event seeks to discuss how we can address justice gaps and accelerate joint action and investment on justice for women and girls.  The event will focus on the following key questions: 

  • What lessons or good practices are in place to resolve women’s justice problems, especially those exacerbated during the COVID-19 pandemic ?
  • How can we urge increased national commitment and action on justice for women and girls?
  • How can we strengthen international and regional alliances to champion the justice for women agenda?

The event will build on the 2020 report on Justice for Women Amidst COVID-19, jointly produced  by the International Development Law Organization (IDLO), UN Women, UNDP, UNODC, World Bank, Pathfinders for Peaceful, Justice and Inclusive Societies and supported by The Elders.  The report identifies women’s justice needs  during the pandemic, highlights emerging COVID-19 gender justice interventions, and offers ten recommendations, building on the Call to Action of the 2019 Justice for Women report, to ensure healthy and inclusive justice systems for women and girls.
