Abstract
Just over three decades ago, feminism entered the discipline of International Relations (ir), challenging the hegemonic readings on international phenomena and the invisibilization of women. As a result, an extensive feminist literature has developed, filling this theoretical and empirical gap. However, the centrality of the debate in the United States and Europe has resulted in an erasure of the experiences of women in the Global South, in particular African women. In this article, we explore feminist debates in ir and Africa, attempting to locate points of convergence that allow for the emergence of African feminist approaches to international phenomena.
