Fahamu is a pan-African organisation that collaborates with social movements and grassroots organizations to tackle the causes of social injustice in Africa. Fahamu supports and addresses the needs of economically oppressed communities and vulnerable and marginalised segments of the society for people-centred and democratised change. Fahamu further strengthens and nurtures movements for social justice by generating and sharing knowledge to serve activism; bridging the gap between theory and practice; capacity building for civil society actors; public policy advocacy and creating platforms for analysis and debate.
Through its Emerging Powers in Africa project, Fahamu Africa has provided an analysis platform of coherent knowledge frameworks on Africa’s engagement with actors such as India, China, Turkey, Brazil, among others. The project’s objective is to promote rigorous knowledge production informing civil society engagement and advocacy in the Africa-Emerging Powers engagement. (Fahamu Africa, 2016)
