The African Gender Institute (AGI) is a feminist research and teaching group that studies issues related to gender in Africa. It has become a department at the University of Cape Town (UCT), administered within the School of African and Gender Studies, Social Anthropology and Linguistics. The AGI has its own dedicated staff and has a unique degree of independence from UCT. ==Purpose== The AGI describes itself as specifically feminist and seeks to promote feminism on the African continent. The AGI serves as a point of contact for feminist intellectuals across Africa, many of whom suffer from isolation and discrimination at their academic institutions.〔See Sylvia Tamale, profiled in: Gretchen L. Wilson, "African Female Scholars Share Virtual Lifeline", ''Women's eNews'' on ''WorldPress'', 21 December 2006.〕 Amina Mama—a key figure at the AGI—has argued that the organization constitutes a key exception to neoliberal commodification of and control over African academics.〔〔Amina Mama interviewed by Elaine Salo, "Talking about Feminism in Africa", reproduced in ''Women's World'' from ''Agenda'', "African Feminisms I", no. 50 (2001).〕 A major goal of the AGI is to maintain an institutional space for African feminists to network, collaborate, teach, and research.〔
