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



Join Coady Institute’s Sarika Sinha (Program Teaching Staff)Eileen Alma (Director, International Centre for Women’s Leadership), and guests for a free webinar, Covid-19 from an Intersectional Gendered Perspective: Looking Beyond the Obvious.

This webinar proposes to delve into the impact of Covid-19 on the gendered relations and look beyond the obvious. It aims to not only delve directly into the loss of jobs and earnings, but also indirectly in terms of food insecurity, depletion of savings and assets, social isolation, and mobility loss (much of it legalised and enforced by state). Further, women who were unpaid workers in homes and family enterprises, face further precarity. The conversation, moreover, aims to look into the labour market transitions, type of work that women have been doing, social protection and change in care work from the standpoint of the poor and excluded women across the globe. Lastly, it aims to look at the women led progressive pathways towards developing more equitable alternatives.
