The Impact of the case of Jordaan and Others v Minister of Home Affairs and Another on Religion in South Africa
The judgment in Jordaan and Others v Minister of Home Affairs and Another (Jordaan case) marks a significant advance in South African equality jurisprudence. It changed a long standing law rooted in important African tradition and religious principles on marital surname changes. Prior to the Jordaan case, legal frameworks permitted only women to adopt their husbands’ surnames upon marriage. The judgment rectified this imbalance, granting men the …
Tackling Climate Change Impacts from a Gendered Perspective in South Africa
Impacts of climate change disproportionately affect women due to their biological differences and gender roles prevalent within societal and familial structures. As a result, climate change amplifies the existing gender inequalities present in South African communities. This document-based research provides a comprehensive overview of the legal frameworks governing climate change in South Africa, with a focus on their responsiveness to the gender…
Women’s Exclusion from Political Participation and Coup D’etat
African leaders often cling to power for extended periods without recognising the need for a peaceful transfer of authority.

We encountered the egregious religious practice of administering Doom insecticide to congregants purportedly for therapeutic and demonic exorcism purposes, as exemplified in the case of MEC for Health, Limpopo vs Rabalago and Another. In this matter, …
African Initiated Churches and Gender Equality
Marital equality has been a challenge among all religious faiths worldwide from time immemorial. Without a doubt, gender inequality is a pervasive issue that exists in most of the world’s religions. The subjugation of women to men is an unfortunate reality that cannot be ignored or overlooked. It is a critical issue that needs to be addressed and resolved to bring about equality and justice for all. This research focused specifically on the marit…
Zimbabwean women’s experiences at Johanne Masowe WeChishanu Apostolic churches’ open ground gatherings
The Constitution of Zimbabwe guarantees religious freedoms and freedom of association including for religious purposes. While people can gather for religious purposes, the main thrust of this paper is to investigate and unpack environmental crises caused by Christian gatherings and how women are affected by these environmental crises. The article focuses on the Johanne Masowe WeChishanu Apostolic churches. Environmental rights in terms of the Con…
