In this article, I examine critically the framing of the African girl child in international development discourse on menstruation and menstrual activism and address the question, “What influence have African girls had on policy or programs and to what extent have they been mere targets and objects of such policies and programs?” I analyze baseline interviews I carried out at the inception of a Zimbabwean sanitary wear intervention and shine a light on African girls as potential guides and consultants in constructing policy and programs. I show how the communitarian, Ubuntu-centred family values of rural Ndebele people provide a counterpoint to colonial and neoliberal Western-centred development approaches in addressing challenges girls face in relation to menstrual preparation and early unintended pregnancy.
在这篇文章中,我批判性地审视了非洲女孩在国际发展话语中关于月经和月经活动的框架,并解决了这个问题,“非洲女孩对政策或项目有什么影响,她们在多大程度上只是这些政策和项目的目标和对象?”我分析了我在津巴布韦卫生服装干预开始时进行的基线访谈,并将非洲女孩作为制定政策和计划的潜在指南和顾问。我展示了农村恩德贝勒人的社群主义、以优优为中心的家庭价值观,如何在解决女孩在月经准备和意外早孕方面面临的挑战方面,提供了与殖民主义和以西方为中心的新自由主义发展方法的对比。

Cameroon's Schools 喀麦隆的学校

In this article, the data for which I acquired through a systematic review of articles published over three years, focusing on analyzing the evolution of the situation over these past years, I discuss school-based gender violence in Cameroon. Considering the complexity of Cameroonian society and its responses to violence against girls and women, we need to establish that violence can be addressed, and we have to suggest how this can be done. From one region to another, a girl being denied access to education, being trafficked, or being forced into early marriage constitutes an experience of violence. Even though the government has been fighting these ills for the past twenty years the results show that girls are still highly vulnerable in the education system.
在这篇文章中,我通过系统地回顾过去三年发表的文章,重点分析过去几年形势的演变,获得了数据,我讨论了喀麦隆的校园性别暴力。考虑到喀麦隆社会的复杂性及其对暴力侵害女童和妇女行为的反应,我们需要确定暴力是可以解决的,我们必须建议如何做到这一点。从一个地区到另一个地区,女孩被剥夺受教育的机会、被贩运或被迫早婚都构成了暴力经历。尽管政府在过去的二十年里一直在与这些弊病作斗争,但结果表明,女孩在教育系统中仍然非常脆弱。

In this article, we use data generated through photovoice and focus group discussions to examine how primary school girls from two resource-poor and high-risk rural communities in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa, negotiate their safety on the dangerous journey to and from school. Our findings show that girls actively identify and apply specific safe-seeking strategies by drawing on available community and interpersonal resources as they navigate their way to school. These strategies moderate risk exposure and are perceived to reduce girls’ vulnerability to victimization. While the sustainability of these strategies remains in question, it is essential to note that girls can exercise their agency in providing safety in sociocultural and geographic contexts that expose them to risk.
在本文中,我们使用通过photovoice和焦点小组讨论生成的数据来研究来自南非夸祖鲁-纳塔尔省两个资源贫乏和高风险农村社区的小学女生如何在危险的上下学旅途中协商安全问题。我们的研究结果表明,在上学的路上,女孩通过利用现有的社区和人际资源,积极地识别和应用特定的寻求安全的策略。这些策略减少了风险暴露,并被认为减少了女孩受害的脆弱性。虽然这些战略的可持续性仍有问题,但必须指出,女孩可以在使她们面临危险的社会文化和地理环境中行使其提供安全的权力。

Reframing African Girlhood 重塑非洲少女时代
IF 0.8 Q2 Social Sciences Pub Date : 2023-03-01 DOI: 10.3167/ghs.2023.160101
C. Mitchell
This Special Issue on African Girlhoods is long overdue for many reasons, not least of which is its recognition, as guest editors Marla L. Jaksch, Catherine Cymone Fourshey, and Relebohile Moletsane point out, of the somewhat vexed history of the discourse of the African girl-child that dates back to the global development literature of the early 1990s attached to the Fourth World Conference on Women: Action for Equality, Development and Peace, held in Beijing in September, 1995—typically referred to just as Beijing. This, and the many country and regional conferences leading up it were (and still are) game-changers in so many ways when it comes to the lives of girls and women. It would be remiss of me not to acknowledge that I participated readily in the early days of defining the girl-child when I was working as a short-term UNICEF consultant in Zambia to develop an agenda for the Ministry of Education and other policy actors for research about education for girls in Zambia. One of the events in which I participated in Lusaka in October 1994 as part of my fact-finding and local consulting was a meeting of 80 or more local NGO members and other Zambian women who were planning their submissions to the November 1994 African Platform for Action: Fifth African Regional Conference (Dakar) on Women preparatory to Beijing. As an observer at this meeting, I heard a presenter talk about the fact that she was one of the first women (if not the first) in Zambia to graduate from university. This was in 1994 and at the time I could see that giving any recognition and support to ordinary girls and their education was full of possibilities, if very complicated. But I regard all this as just as much a part of the development of Girlhood Studies as was the work in North America on girls and science in the late 1980s. As I note elsewhere on charting girlhood studies (Mitchell 2016) we now know that just getting more girls into science was equally complicated.
这期《非洲少女特刊》姗姗来迟,原因有很多,其中最重要的是,正如特约编辑Marla L. Jaksch、Catherine Cymone Fourshey和Relebohile Moletsane所指出的那样,它认识到,关于非洲女孩的论述有些令人困惑的历史,可以追溯到20世纪90年代初与第四次世界妇女大会有关的全球发展文献:1995年9月在北京(通常简称北京)举行的平等、发展与和平行动会议。这次会议,以及在此之前召开的许多国家和地区会议,在许多方面改变了女孩和妇女的生活(现在仍然如此)。如果我不承认,我在早期积极参与了女童的定义,当时我是联合国儿童基金会在赞比亚的短期顾问,为教育部和其他政策参与者制定一项议程,以研究赞比亚女童的教育,那将是我的疏忽。我于1994年10月在卢萨卡参加的一项活动是作为我的实况调查和当地咨询工作的一部分,这是一次由80多名当地非政府组织成员和其他赞比亚妇女参加的会议,她们正在规划向1994年11月《非洲行动纲要:第五次非洲妇女问题区域会议(达喀尔)》提交的文件,为北京的筹备工作做准备。作为这次会议的观察员,我听到一位演讲者谈到她是赞比亚第一批大学毕业生(如果不是第一个的话)之一。那是在1994年,当时我可以看到,给予普通女孩和她们的教育任何认可和支持都充满了可能性,尽管非常复杂。但我认为所有这些都是少女时代研究发展的一部分,就像20世纪80年代末北美关于女孩和科学的工作一样。正如我在其他关于女孩研究的图表(Mitchell 2016)中指出的那样,我们现在知道,让更多的女孩进入科学领域同样复杂。

“Let's Go to School and Marry Later” “让我们先上学,再结婚”

In this article, I track the contribution of Tanganyikan girls to the big push for schooling that characterized the country, and the whole of Africa, from the 1940s to the late 1970s. So doing, I bring together two historiographies—works that document nationalist discourses that promoted this quick expansion of the schooling system and those that underline the agency of African girls in shaping their lives and education. Reading together girls’ writings in the press, archival documentation, and interviews with adult women, I propose a nuanced analysis of girls’ stances towards a public discourse that made their schooling a significant asset for nation-building.
在这篇文章中,我追溯了20世纪40年代到70年代末,坦噶尼干女孩为推动这个国家乃至整个非洲的教育发展所做的贡献。为此,我汇集了两本史学著作——一本记录民族主义话语的著作,这些话语促进了教育体系的快速扩张,另一本则强调了非洲女孩在塑造她们的生活和教育方面的作用。通过阅读媒体上女孩的文章、档案文件和对成年女性的采访,我建议对女孩对公共话语的立场进行细致入微的分析,这种公共话语使她们的教育成为国家建设的重要资产。

Expanded feminist narratives on the girl child have paid little attention to how young girls have become agents of their own change and sharers of their own knowledge. In this study, we spotlight girls’ agency reinforced by institutions that transform them from recipient to agents of change and resilience. In this qualitative study, we deploy critical analysis and reflective argumentation to underscore how Women's Research and Documentation Center (WORDOC) of the Institute of African Studies University of Ibadan provided Do-It-Yourself (DIY) tactics to girls aged 10 to 18 between 2018 and 2019 at its annual WORDOC Girls’ Summit. We explore a version of African girlhood aimed at presenting institutional impacts that offer platforms for girls’ self-empowerment and girl-agency in Nigeria.
关于女童的扩展女权主义叙事很少关注年轻女孩如何成为自身变革的推动者和自身知识的分享者。在本研究中,我们重点关注女孩的能动性,这些能动性得到了将她们从接受者转变为变革和适应能力推动者的制度的加强。在这项定性研究中,我们运用批判性分析和反思性论证,强调伊巴丹大学非洲研究所妇女研究与文献中心(WORDOC)如何在2018年至2019年的年度WORDOC女孩峰会上为10至18岁的女孩提供自己动手(DIY)的策略。我们探索了一个版本的非洲少女时代,旨在展示制度的影响,为尼日利亚女孩的自我赋权和女孩代理提供平台。

“I Cannot Fall Pregnant!” “我不能怀孕!”

Girls from single-parent households in South Africa (90 percent of whom are Black African or coloured) have significantly lower educational outcomes than other demographics. Through a methodology of life-history interviews, we explore the experiences of 30 women in single-headed households who have been successful in their educational endeavours as university students or graduates. Results show that pressures on girls from single-headed households to look after the family and domestic sphere and to protect their bodies from sexual abuse leave many girls depleted of the time, energy, and mental capacity required to study. Despite these challenges, these participants have escaped the perceived weight of their female burden in a post-apartheid, patriarchal society and reclaim their bodies and sense of agency through educational success.
来自南非单亲家庭的女孩(其中90%是非洲黑人或有色人种)的教育成果明显低于其他人口统计数据。通过生活史访谈的方法,我们探讨了30名单身家庭女性的经历,她们在大学或毕业生时期都取得了成功的教育努力。结果表明,单亲家庭的女孩在照顾家庭和家务以及保护自己的身体免受性虐待方面承受的压力,使许多女孩耗尽了学习所需的时间、精力和智力。尽管面临这些挑战,但这些参与者已经摆脱了后种族隔离、男权社会中女性负担的感知负担,并通过教育上的成功重新获得了她们的身体和能力感。
