Co-Creating a Political Home for Feminist Movements
From 27 - 30 April, 2026, AWID will be at the Women Deliver 2026 Conference, co-creating a political home with feminist and gender justice movements that is rooted in transnational care and solidarity.
In a time when fascism and militarization continue to rise globally, feminist connection and solidarity across borders is what we truly need. We are organizing multiple spaces at Women Deliver and online to connect movements with each other in conversations to build feminist agendas of solidarity and action.
During Women Deliver, Movement Hubs in Fiji and Georgia are designing their own program rooted in their community to connect virtually to the Women Deliver Conference. Learn about their program!

A Collaborative Session: ‘What Do Movements Need Now? Resourcing Feminist Resistance in a Time of Contraction’
📅 Wednesday, April 29
🕒 4.00-5:30pm
🏢 Room number: 204
Feminist movements continue resourcing themselves amid a deepening funding crisis driven by authoritarianism and donor retreat. This session centers alternative and autonomous resourcing as a political question, exploring emerging movement-defined priorities and what it means to resource with feminist principles–autonomy, solidarity, redistribution, care, and shared risk. Participants will examine what different actors can meaningfully contribute, and how, identifying practical strategies that move us beyond scarcity and transactional funding toward sustainable, movement-led resourcing.
Hosted by AWID with MADRE, Fondo Semillas and Feminist Church
Movement Hubs are locally organized spaces where AWID member organizations come together to engage with global feminist processes from their own territories. The Hubs in Fiji and Georgia are organizing workshops and dialogue that connect to conversations at Women Deliver around feminist resourcing, intersectional solidarity, climate justice and collective care. Check out their program and follow AWID on social media for live updates!
