The Oxfam Pan Africa Programme (PAP) works with African citizens through their formations so as to achieve their aspirations for justice, equality, sustainable development and stability through improving the implementation of continental mechanisms and commitments. One of the thematic work of the PAP is  Gender Justice and through this we seek to advance women’s rights by strengthening women’s capacity to collectively demand for their rights as enshrined in the Protocol to the African Charter on Human and People’s Rights on the Rights of Women in Africa (the Maputo Protocol)(2003) and ensuring effective gender mainstreaming in all of the Oxfam’s work.
