Events
IFAGE plans and hosts annual international conferences with faith leaders on gender-based violence and the role of religious communities in ending it. The main goal of these events is to create and build a faith movement in Africa for gender justice by equiping faith communities in the role of faith leaders to achieve gender justice
Dubbed the “Pan African Faith Leaders Conferences”, these annual events provide safe spaces and opportunity for faith leaders, women, and civil society organizations across Africa to dialogue about the role of faith actors and religious communities in ending sexual and gender-based violence.
