Racial justice Generic (e.g. 'gender focal point' role Gender equality and Social inclusion (GESI)Organizational context
Founded by two Black women in the aftermath of the 2020 Black Lives Matter protests around the world, the African Futures Lab (AfaLab) works to advance demands for racial justice for Africans and Afro-descended people. We pursue the recognition and repair of global racial injustices through rigorous, empirically grounded knowledge exchange across Africa and Europe. Our work includes research, "Mobilization Labs" with partner organizations, and advocacy.Project contextThe aim of this project is therefore to raise awareness of the persistence of racial prejudice against black women in our societies in Europe and Africa, and to tackle the injustice and suffering that this causes to those concerned.
Drawing on robust data from a research report, this project aims to raise awareness among the public, civil society organizations, and authorities in Europe and Africa about the dual violence Black women experience at the intersection of race and gender.
To put it another way, we want to draw attention to the fact that black women's bodies are an instrument of colonial expansion policies, but also to underline how black women's bodies are, in contemporary times, a tool in the foundation of racial and patriarchal domination.
To this end, we aim to conduct a research project documenting the persistence of stereotypes and injustices against Black women from colonization to the present day in two former colonial powers (the UK and Germany) and their former colonies (Kenya and Namibia).
The main questions raised by this research project are as follows:
- How did colonial administrations and European populations view African women during the colonial era?
- What were the colonial legal, political and social measures that affected or were aimed specifically at African women?
- What are the political, socio-economic, and human rights consequences for their lives?
- Are there differences between colonies and over time?
- What remains of these stereotypes in the European and African countries concerned?
- What are the consequences for women's daily lives in terms of their personal experiences and their social, political and economic lives?
- To what extent do these stereotypes persist in national and international public policies targeting this population?
Required qualifications
- PhD in qualitative and/or quantitative social sciences. Relevant disciplines include, but are not limited to history, law, sociology, anthropology, political science and economics.
- Thematic expertise in gender studies.
- Thematic expertise in historical and contemporary racial injustices.
- Demonstrated experience in qualitative and/or quantitative social science research, including field research.
- Proven experience in conducting operational research.
- Excellent writing skills, demonstrated by a record of publications.
- Required language skills: Excellent command of English.
