Agenda: 'a labour of love'

As I sit here, reflecting upon history, remembering the contextual conditions under which we have operated and the 10 years worth of weekly voluntary labour hours, I am convinced that without some madness and a lot of love it would not have been possible to give women a forum, voice and skills... towards transforming unequal gender relations in South Africa. Ten years is a long time to condense into a few pages. Here I shall outline some of the key strategies, practices and processes that have enabled the only feminist journal in the country to survive, and contribute towards an extremely difficult yet challenging period of our history.
