| Summary: | This article is about the historical events and the strong and collaborative leadership of Mercy Amba Oduyoye of Ghana that led to the launching and creation of the Circle of Concerned African Women Theologians in 1989. The Circle, as it is commonly referred to in Africa, is an interfaith association that aims at producing theological literature by encouraging and mentoring women to research, write, and publish in the wide scope of religion and culture. The paper highlights some key areas of concern: theological education for women, gender and theology, biblical and cultural hermeneutics, imperialism and globalization, gender-based violence, theology of lamentation, and theology on the HIV & AIDS pandemic. |
