Kurapa Moyo

Contextualising wellness to the realities of African women through community, care and intention

At Kurapa Moyo, we address the critical gaps in mental health and wellness advocacy across Africa, focusing on the unique challenges faced by youth, women, and marginalized communities. The social and environmental challenges we tackle include:

• Stigma Around Mental Health: Cultural stigma prevents many individuals from seeking support. We work to normalize conversations around mental health and provide accessible resources to empower individuals to prioritize their well-being.

• Youth Mental Health Disparities: Many young people, especially in underprivileged settings, lack the tools and safe spaces to process mental health challenges. We create programs that educate and equip youth to become advocates for their mental wellness and their communities.

• Workplace Wellness for Women: African women often face intersectional barriers, including gender bias and workplace burnout. We design initiatives that promote holistic wellness, encouraging work-life balance and resilience-building practices.

• Trauma and Collective Healing: The lingering effects of historical and social trauma require intentional spaces for healing. Through programs like creative transcendence journeys, we focus on collective recovery, fostering communities that thrive emotionally and mentally.

Our mission is to cultivate a culture of care and resilience, breaking barriers to wellness and inspiring sustainable change.

At Kurapa Moyo, we believe that healing and resilience grow through intentional community, education, and advocacy. Our solution focuses on creating accessible, transformative programs and spaces that empower individuals and communities to address mental health challenges effectively. Here's how we achieve this:

• Wellness Advocacy Training Program: This flagship initiative trains young leaders to become mental health advocates. By equipping youth with the knowledge, tools, and networks to create change, we foster a generation of proactive wellness ambassadors who can impact their communities.

• Workshops and Healing Spaces: We design and facilitate workshops tailored to specific groups, such as women in the workplace and youth navigating mental health stigma. These sessions combine storytelling, evidence-based practices, and culturally relevant approaches to promote self-awareness and collective growth.

• Creative Healing Journeys: Our creative transcendence programs use art, storytelling, and communal dialogue to address trauma and encourage emotional recovery. These journeys are particularly impactful in creating safe spaces for collective healing.

• Digital Outreach and Campaigns: Leveraging social media and online platforms, we amplify mental health education through campaigns like “Mental Health at Work,” targeting stigma reduction and wellness promotion among African audiences.

• Collaboration with Communities: We work alongside community members and organizations to co-create solutions, ensuring our programs address localized needs while promoting ownership and sustainability.

We are looking for individuals who are passionate about amplifying wellness and making it as accessible as possible to African women.
