WE ARE AFRICAN ALLIANCE
[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][vc_column_text]The African Alliance works closely with a wide range of non-profit organisations in a network that, while rooted in the local, is connected to and visible in national, regional and global actions. We seek to advance rights-based, critical and developmental programming to address the needs of underserved communities across Africa by working collectively to ensure that affected communities are informed about their rights; have access to dignified health care and the agency and access to hold duty bearers to account for the non-realisation of these rights. Our work is underpinned by a thoughtful, inclusive and consultative practice that, importantly, resonates with our values.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/4″][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”grid” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern” z_index=””][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”40px”][vc_separator type=”normal” color=”#f9f9f9″ thickness=”5″][vc_empty_space height=”40px”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”grid” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern” css=”.vc_custom_1709727265403{background-color: #000000 !important;}” z_index=””][vc_column][vc_column_text]Our Programmes

Between 2020 and early 2021, we saw the harshest impact of COVID-19, with millions of people acquiring COVID-19 despite our use of tools such as social distancing, masking and sanitising. Millions died due to COVID-19 complications and limited therapeutic interventions. In 2023, many developed countries who had reached over 70% vaccination coverage called for the end of the pandemic and were rewarded with a declaration in May by the head of WHO of the end to COVID-19 as a public health emergency. However, he also stressed that the declaration does not mean the disease is no longer a global threat; the continuous evolution of COVID-19 reduces the protection offered by current vaccines against infection and mild disease and there are ongoing concerns that COVID-19 and its variants will continue to evolve, with the latest sub-variants causing a rise in infections globally as recently as November 2022. While developed countries are better equipped to manage COVID-19 without the need for states of emergency or strict lockdown rules, this is not the case for everyone and certainly not for Africa. The true end of the pandemic can only happen if there is equitable access to COVID-19 vaccines, tests and treatment in all countries globally.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_video link=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2eDowcg3CEM”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”grid” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern” css=”.vc_custom_1709893122701{background-color: #000000 !important;}” z_index=””][vc_column][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][vc_row_inner row_type=”row” type=”full_width” text_align=”left” css_animation=””][vc_column_inner][qode_advanced_image_gallery type=”carousel” enable_image_shadow=”no” image_behavior=”lightbox” space_between_items=”small” number_of_visible_items=”3″ slider_loop=”yes” slider_autoplay=”yes” slider_navigation=”yes” slider_pagination=”yes” images=”3669,3668,3667,3666,3665,3664,3663″ image_size=”full”][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_empty_space height=”10px”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”grid” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern” z_index=””][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″][button size=”big_large_full_width” target=”_self” hover_type=”default” text_align=”center” text=”Explore more” link=”https://kashjob.co.za/covid-19″][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”grid” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern” css=”.vc_custom_1709893315761{background-color: #000000 !important;}” z_index=””][vc_column][vc_separator type=”normal” color=”#f9f9f9″ thickness=”5″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”grid” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern” css=”.vc_custom_1675196709293{background-color: #000000 !important;}” z_index=””][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][vc_column_text]Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights
[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][vc_column_text]Sexual and reproductive health refer to a person’s physical, emotional, mental and social well-being in relation to all aspects of sexuality and reproduction, not merely the absence of disease, dysfunction, or infirmity. A positive approach to sexuality and reproduction should recognise the part played by pleasurable sexual relationships, trust, and communication in promoting self-esteem and overall well-being. Sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) refers to everyone’s right to have full control over their body, sexuality, health and relationships. People have the right to make free and informed decisions about all things related to their sexuality and reproduction without any form of discrimination, coercion, violence and other rights violations (or threats of).[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”grid” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern” css=”.vc_custom_1675196709293{background-color: #000000 !important;}” z_index=””][vc_column][qode_advanced_image_gallery type=”carousel” enable_image_shadow=”no” image_behavior=”lightbox” space_between_items=”small” number_of_visible_items=”3″ slider_loop=”yes” slider_autoplay=”yes” slider_navigation=”yes” slider_pagination=”yes” images=”3697,3698,3699,3700,3701,3702″ image_size=”full”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”10px”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”grid” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern” z_index=””][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″][button size=”big_large_full_width” target=”_self” hover_type=”default” text=”Explore more” link=”https://kashjob.co.za/srhr-2/”][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”grid” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern” css=”.vc_custom_1710755039605{background-color: #000000 !important;}” z_index=””][vc_column][vc_separator type=”normal” color=”#ffffff” thickness=”5″][vc_row_inner row_type=”row” type=”grid” text_align=”left” css_animation=””][vc_column_inner][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][vc_column_text]Decolonisation and White Supremacy
