Black (Hi)Story Month © GI Kigali

Black History Month

International Women's Day is celebrated on 8 March. We have taken this as an opportunity to dedicate the entire month of March to women.

This month we are paying tribute to women all over the world by celebrating and supporting them.

We are planning to share great female accomplishments and talents, inform about assumed tabooed topics, question theories and terms, and open up our space for discussions and debates.

Raise your words. ​

Societal Influence on Women’s Bodies

The pressure and expectations society is putting on women, their bodies and their appearance is huge. In many advertisements and magazines as well as on social media, women get pushed to fit into a certain image and to reach some socially presumed body standards.
