We are proud to announce a significant development in the pan-African and Feminist Philanthropies Initiative emanating from our recent insightful and collaborative strategising meeting in Kenya, from 1-2 March 2024.
We have always aspired to have an African name that reclaims the internationalist and intersectional agendas of pan-Africanism and feminism in philanthropy. After careful deliberations, we have branded our Pan-African and Feminist Philanthropies initiative."Harambee" signifies pulling together, collaborating, and collectively working towards a common goal, while"Ubuntu" represents the philosophy of interconnectedness, unity, and shared humanity.
This name change affirms the rich history of African giving – rooted in solidarity, mutuality and collective humanity that have been ignored and internationally silenced. As we focus on constituency-building approaches and transformative partnership strategies, we have deepened our collaboration by adopting a vibrant and recognisable logo that positions this work beyond the African continent.
We continue to envision an ecosystem of philanthropies grounded in pan-African and feminist values and principles, with shared infrastructure and mechanisms that connect and strengthen social movements, activists and communities by moving money and other resources in service of their efforts to advance justice and equity.
