South Africa:  Campaign Feminist Movemem Shayisfuba is a campaign which exists to harness and consolidate the voice, organizing capacities and power of womxn#s rights and feminist movements and organizations in order to effectively challenge patriarchal oppression and capitalist exclusion.

The time for#national liberation first and women#s liberation later# has long passed. Central to the ethos of the campaign is the belief in theindividual and collective power of ordinary womxn and non-binary people to harness real and meaningful change. The campaign aspiresto organize in service of and together with womxn and gender non-binary people who are both either aligned and organized in social movements and organizations as well as with individual womxn and gender non-binary people who are unorganized and non-aligned working in their respective communities. We believe in our capacity to do this work as it relates to our contexts, as well as in service of building consensus towards a broader feminist consciousness and movement nationally. We intend to build the campaign and organize intensively ahead of the 2021 Local Government Elections. As a core political and campaign imperative, our work will be pursued withthe deliberate view of a) building strong relationships with grassroots and community based organizations and b) supporting and promoting African working class womxn in leadership and internal working systems of the campaign. c) Engaging local and national government level decision-makers and other institutions of socialisation (eg religious and traditional institutions; private sector, educational institutions, media, etc.)
The ultimate goal is to contribute to making feminist change possible in South African society through influencing policy interventions, at the macro level and social norms and behavioral change at the micro level.

OBJECTIVES
1. PRODUCE A SET OF RESEARCH OUTCOMES AS EVIDENCE OF OUR ANALYSIS; OUR UNDERSTANDING OF OUR CONTEXT AND TO INFORM OUR POLICY POSITIONS AND INTERVENTIONS
Of importance, is our goal to analyse, review and consolidate research into the economy of South Africa and measure the economic participation of womxn and gender non-binary people. This task of developing a practical feminist economic model for addressing inequality and exclusion, as an alternative to what exists will also position the campaign to inform our position on landjustice; healthcare; education; gender and LGBT rights, and womxn#s democratic participation.

2. BUILD CAPACITY AT THE INDIVIDUAL AND COMMUNITY LEVEL
Organize andbuild capacity in ways that maximize participation as well as learning at the individual level and community level in order to harness the collective strategies, capacity and strengthening of feminist movement building in South Africa. This will be done through feminist political education as well as strategic resource mobilization across provinces.

3. CAMPAIGNING, ADVOCACY AND LOBBYING LOCAL AND NATIONAL GOVERNMENT AND OTHER INSTITUTIONS OF SOCIALISATION AS IDENTIFIED
From the evidence, wewill produce evidence-based messaging as a strategic communications deliverable; this will include a feminist government scorecard built off the research we generate that will engage local government leaders on accountability and promises made. We will produce easyto use toolkits, position papers, multi medium and multi-language infographics and other relevant materials.

4. PURSUING CITIZEN ACTIVISM THROUGH MASS BASED FEMINIST MOVEMENT BUILDING
We understand mass based feminist movement building to be possiblethrough information seeking (objectives 1 and 2) and information sharing (objective 2 and 3).
