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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
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 \u201cHarambee~Ubuntu Pan-African and Feminist
Philanthropies\u201d. \u201cHarambee\u201d signifies pulling together, collaborating, and collectively working
towards a common goal, while \u201cUbuntu\u201d represents the philosophy of interconnectedness, unity, and
shared humanity. This name change affirms the rich history of African giving \u2013 rooted in solidarity,
mutuality and collective humanity that have been ignored and internationally silenced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Harambee~Ubuntu pan-African and Feminist philanthropies stem from a deep partnership between
Urgent Action Fund\u2013Africa, a feminist, pan-African, rapid response Fund committed to transforming
power relations through resourcing African feminists and womn\u2019s human rights defenders and their
formations, and TrustAfrica, a pan-African foundation that seeks to strengthen African agency and
initiatives that address the pressing challenges confronting the continent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We are excited about the possibilities that Harambee~Ubuntu brings and look forward to continuing
our collaborative efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
