What started as a blog

Feminist Voices Zimbabwe began as a spark—a bold, unapologetic space for feminist thought, legal critique, and storytelling. What started as a blog, The Black Girl Legal Narrative, in 2017 grew into a movement that reclaims narratives, builds communities, and challenges oppressive structures.

We registered as Feminist Voices Zimbabwe

By 2019, our vision had outgrown the digital pages of a blog. We registered as Feminist Voices Zimbabwe, formalizing our commitment to creating intersectional feminist realities in Zimbabwe and beyond.

Our first funded project

In 2020, we implemented our first funded project, the Zim Girl Narratives Project, supported by Global Changemakers. This initiative amplified the voices of rural girls, equipping them with storytelling and artivism as tools to speak truth to power.

We had sharpened our mission

By 2021, we had sharpened our mission—to co-create intersectional queer feminist realities through storytelling, movement-building, and safe spaces. We expanded our work to ensure that LGBTQIA+ persons and women in Zimbabwe could tell their own stories, claim space, and resist violence in all its forms.

Built a thriving community

By 2023, Feminist Voices Zimbabwe had built a thriving community of over 300 women and queer persons, with more than 30 volunteers and co-creators shaping our movement. We deepened our commitment to radical care, mutual aid, and transformative justice, centering community-led security and feminist resistance in our work.

Researching, Programming Safety and Security

In 2024, we embarked on a new chapter—Researching, Programming Safety and Security as a core part of our mission. Recognizing that safety is political, we are exploring how feminist and queer communities can reclaim security outside of violent, exclusionary systems.
