About the Committe
Objective: To influence collaboration and the tour circuit for women in the arts and literature in the Americas and Southern Africa.
Motivation:
The fight for equality continues to be on the global agenda, although the reality in America differs from that in Africa. What pathways can enable women from Southern Africa and the PALOP to have a voice in forming partnerships with women in the creative industries in the Americas, without needing to go through a traditionally male-dominated business world?
In discussion:
Is the approach in the Americas aligned with the visions and traditions of African women? How can we create a mechanism to support each other in an environment of respect and shared beliefs? What are the real challenges, and what actions can be taken? Can festivals and spaces on both continents play an important role in accelerating the integration of women into decision-making roles and facilitating tours and professional development?
