EASSI BLOG: The Eastern African Sub-regional Support Initiative for the Advancement of Women (EASSI) is a sub-regional civil society organization comprised of individuals, NGOs, Coalitions and Networks all committed to transformation of gender relations globally but mostly in the Eastern African sub-region. The Beijing and African Platforms for Action are the main international agreements that frame EASSI’s work. Other instruments that form the basis of our work include the Protocol to the African Charter on Human and People’s Rights on the Rights of Women in Africa (Maputo Protocol), and the Convention on the Elimination of all forms of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW). EASSI was formed in 1996 and her Vision is a society where all enjoy gender equality, social justice, peace and development. To this end, EASSI’s Mission is to facilitate follow-up of the Beijing and African Platforms for Action in order to enhance the advancement of women and social justice.
