About Badili Africa

Women’s Rights Organization

Badili Africa is a Pan-African women’s rights organization working to redefine leadership and political participation by centering the voices and agency of grassroots women and young people. Founded in 2015 and operational since 2018, we focus on two primary constituencies: young women aged 16–30 in tertiary institutions and informal settlements, and Chama women, who are central to their communities’ socio-economic and solidarity networks, and male allies as our secondary audience.

"I would like to be known as an intelligent woman, courageous woman, a loving woman, a woman who teaches by being."
