In this novel course, students are introduced to theories of Sexual and Reproductive Health, and the concepts and approaches of Africentrism in addition to the art of conducting SRH Advocacy including strategic litigation in the African context. This will enhance participants’ capacities and equip them with the art to conduct advocacy utilising tools and interventions rooted in Africentrism.
Recognizing the persistent need for elevated initiatives, this program stands as a critical platform for SRH advocates seeking to enhance their skills.
The uniqueness of this programme lies in its explicit focus on the regional SRH frameworks and institutions within Africa, viewed through an Africentric lens. This distinctive approach offers a dynamic and comprehensive learning environment, providing students with unparalleled insights and tools to effectively navigate and utilise these mechanisms.
