Reclaiming Our Voice

Neno Huru emerged from the urgent need to bridge the gap between harmful external labels and the authentic self-definitions of African women and gender minorities. Our journey began across Tanzania, Kenya, and Rwanda, uniting six organizations under the leadership of GenDAR to build a digital sanctuary where community-owned knowledge is finally validated and preserved for future generations.

Today, we facilitate regional convenings and community-led research to document the diverse histories of trans, intersex, and queer individuals. Our digital infrastructure serves as a living archive, ensuring narrative sovereignty and linguistic decolonization remain at the heart of the movement.
