Justice for Gay Africans (JfGA) is a UK-Based collaborative of activists,artists, academics, politicians and others designed to draw on the leadership and insight of Black people in the UK to affect positive change for Black LGBTI communities in Africa and Europe.
JfGA is non-funded and is run 100% voluntarily by a group of men and woman who dedicates time our of their busy schedule to make it work.
For the 2 years since founding it in 2009, the group has worked mostly on high level engagement with governments and other policy and decision-making organisation. In this area, JfGA made the Commonwealth a niche focus (see Home page).
JfGA recognises the works and struggle that has been and is still going across the world by many different groups who are doing wonderful works. Although there may be many of them, the goal is one and that is what unites us.
We want to collaborate where possible, but above all, build on what has been done by many before us and still present. We dont want to duplicate effort.
To support our work, simple use our contact page to let us know what we can do together. We are constantly wanting people to get involved to do many things that are needful; helping organise meetings, attend them, conferences, seminars, respond to emails, liaise with organisations, etc. Most of the duties are in the background and if you are happy to go in the frontline, it is also welcomed.
