Date: 10-02-2023


Agenda is a feminist organisation based in southern Africa. The organisation aims to attain gender equality in different life speres. To this effect, contributors have been invited to send in proposals on Climate Justice, Gender and the arts.

Some of the areas are:

- Theorises contemporary gendered artistic practice/s in relationship to Climate Change and Climate Justice (with a focus on the South and on specific African Feminist ecocritical thinking and practices).
- Offers sound interrogated case studies of artists in various disciplines who work at the interface of gender activism, climate justice and social change.
- Interrogate the gendered connection between Climate Justice and arts practices – with a focus on looking at arts AS social justice.
- Establish new and ongoing connection between Southern based and African feminist eco-feminist practices around Climate Justice and how they intersect and manifest in the art and in creative industries.
Trace how youth culture – especially as it effects/affect the Southern based girl-child and young women – are impacted by arts advocacy in negotiating Climate Justice.
- Critically interrogate practices in the creative industries that produce profitable enterprises from waste-streams (“waste-to-profit”) through the arts.
- Offers creative and unusual ways – through poetry, visual photography (etc) – to embody this call.
