Contesting gender and coloniality: A lens on conservative mobilisations in South Africa, Kenya and Ghana.
The decade has seen the emergence of a motley group of movements seeking to chip away at the gains made in sexual and reproductive health and rights and gender equality in Africa countries. Partly made up of ultra-conservative western organisations with strong transnational links, they create campaingns, appoint local spokespersons, set up satellite offices, and provide funding and training. Their focus is generally the revocation of the right to abortion, LGBTQI rights, and complete suxual education, at a higt cost to queer communities, women, and youth. this article explores contemporary expressions opf this globally interlinked resistance in Ghana, South Africa, and Kenya. It offers a critical analysis of the decolonial discourses used by African conservative actors inflyenced by the political debates that have been in circulation sine the 1990s. It explains why the nation of "gender ideology" is not a central organizing tenet for struggles against sexual, and reproductive rights in the three national contexts studied. |
