Side by Side is a coalition advocacy movement which aims to coordinate and mobilise people of faith and faith actors in Africa and around the world who want to see gender justice become a reality. Local faith leaders are physically present in communities and enjoy strong relationships of trust and have huge influence over communities. Side by Side believes that gender justice can be achieved if faith communities and faith leaders work together. Suzanne speaks with Dr Nontando Hedebe, International Coordinator for Side by Side and also a lay preacher and lecturer in theology, and Temitope Fashola, Christian Aid Nigeria’s country director to find out more about the movement, and discuss how effective such coalition advocacy movements are as a method for achieving wider change.
