Inspiring Change Through Feminist-Driven Content
At The Catalyst Collective, we are redefining the way feminism is understood, explored, and shared. In an era of rapid change and digital communication, our platform is a meeting place for young feminists, activists, academics, and intersectional thinkers eager to challenge societal norms and inspire meaningful progress. Here, feminist theory meets creativity, and empowerment becomes action.
In recent years, feminist organisations in Zambia have played an increasingly significant role in advocating for gender equality, women's rights, and social justice. These organisations tackle pressing issues such as gender-based violence (GBV), economic disparities, education, and political representation. Here, we take a closer look at some key feminist organisations in Zambia.
Here are some must-read feminist books available for free online that can help deepen your understanding of feminist theory and history.
These resources are excellent for anyone interested in feminist literature and are accessible worldwide.
