Advancing Reproductive Justice in Africa: DGH and AHAKI Align Strategy and Technical Evidence

Dumaic Global Health (DGH) and Afya Na Haki (AHAKI) convened at Nagalaale country house for an ideation workshop that was aimed at aligning technical work with strategic litigation goals under the Litigating Reproductive Justice in Africa (LiRA) program. The program is AHAKI’s flagship initiative designed to shift the regional narrative from reproductive choice to reproductive justice.

Operating across ten African nations- Benin, Ivory coast, Kenya, Madagascar, Malawi, Nigeria, Senegal, South Africa, Uganda and Zimbabwe, the program utilizes strategic litigation to secure essential health rights.

DGH comes on board to provide critical evidence base for this legal advocacy. DGH’s role is to integrate health policies ensuring that policy engagement is grounded in hard data regarding the availability and affordability of life saving SRHR commodities.

By bridging the gap between technical health research and legal advocacy, AHAKI DGH are ensuring that the fight for reproductive justice in Africa is backed by concrete evidence.
