In this episode, Anna Eknor Ackzell, UNRISD Research Analyst, speaks with Dr. Haley McEwen, postdoctoral researcher at the University of Gothenburg and Research Associate of the Wits Centre for Diversity Studies at University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, whose expertise focuses on the influence of the US Christian right on global anti-gender movements. They delve into the financial and political forces driving these movements, particularly in Africa, and explore how religious-right groups mobilize against LGBTQIA+ rights, reproductive justice, and comprehensive sexuality education (CSE).
Dr. McEwen provides a nuanced perspective on the role of North American funding and narratives, addressing the disproportionate financial power of anti-gender movements in comparison to progressive ones. The conversation also challenges the idea of Africa as a "homophobic continent," offering insights into the geopolitical dynamics shaping the region’s gender and sexuality politics.
This episode underscores the importance of understanding these funding flows and explores resistance strategies to better navigate the global backlash in defense of gender justice.
