Black & African FeminisMS Institute

Our Mission

The Black African Feminisms Institute (BAFI) creates space for transnational conversations that honour the intellectual richness and diversity of Black and African feminist thought. Through research, our biennial conference, and community engagement, we foster collaborative knowledge-building that moves from theory to transformative praxis.

We are committed to creating intellectually rigorous yet accessible spaces that center the experiences, scholarship, and leadership of Black women and marginalised communities across the African continent and diaspora.

3rd Biennial Conference

This landmark conference brings together scholars, activists, artists, and community leaders to explore critical themes in Black and African feminist thought. Centering African-based scholarship, we create space for transformative dialogue across borders.
