Да, в конце опроса мы попросим вас поделиться более подробной информацией по важным для вас аспектам, ответив на открытые вопросы.

Context

Today, many community knowledge systems are at risk.

Fast-paced economic, political, and cultural changes are bulldozing environments, practices and livelihoods. Various forms of knowledge are being erased from practice, commodified and colonized in the massive swallow of globalisation and in the promise of short-term gains or band aid solutions.

Definition

Buen Vivir, a concept adapted from Andean Indigenous peoples’ knowledges, is described as the collective achievement of a life in fulfillment, based
on harmonic and balanced relations among human beings and all living beings, in reciprocity and complementarity. It means acknowledging that human beings are a part
of nature, we depend on nature and are inter-dependent among ourselves.

Inherent in Buen Vivir is a vision that integrates production and reproduction as inseparable processes of the economy, of wealth production and living conditions.

Feminist perspective

In this sense, a broad understanding of Buen vivir from a feminist lens values relationships and resources mobilized in production and reproduction cycles—favouring equilibrium of not just the market kind—to guarantee continuity and changes as long as they are compatible with economic justice and life sustainability.

From a feminist perspective there have also been criticisms of the binary conceptions of gender and complementary of men and women. Binary conceptions leave little space for a deeper discussion on heteropatriarchy and non-conforming gender relationships.

Nevertheless, one of the main contributions of centralizing the principle of Buen Vivir to political, economic and social frameworks, is that equality is no longer the paradigm of individual rights, but the transformation of society as a whole.

• Buen Vivir: An introduction from a women’s rights perpective in Boliva by Martha Lanza challenges the notion that Buen Vivir is gender neutral and calls for the dismantling of patriarchal power structures that persist. In the same publication, Magdalena León takes a look through a gender lens at how the cosmovision of Buen Vivir seeks to overcome ideals of permanent expansion and growth and sheds light on gender biases that need to be addressed.
• Buen Vivir: Today's tomorrow, by Eduardo Gudynas
• Indigenous Women's Visions of an Inclusive Feminism by Myrna Cunningham highlights the contributions from indigenous women in building a more diverse, inclusive and ultimately stronger feminist movement are key.

Os dados serão processados para fins estatísticos para esclarecer o estado de financiamento dos movimentos feministas globalmente e serão divulgados apenas em forma agregada.

This bibliography intends to contribute to the desire for learning and engagement identified by activists in the Middle East and North Africa region when reflecting on the aftermath of fast unfolding transitions in the region. Such transitions, while specific to the context of MENA, are not unique in their occurrences around the world. Experiences and practices of feminists from around the world engaged in similar, even if not identical, struggles towards the democratization of their countries with a gendered lens and a feminist politics constitute an important knowledge bank that activists can draw upon, learn from, and engage with. This resource mapping aims to fill the gap realized in various convenings and conversations of a lack of information sharing and knowledge bridging among feminists across the regions that experienced similar uprisings; particularly along south-south and east-south lines.

This publication represents a research mapping of key resources, publications and materials on transitions to democracy and women’s rights in different countries of the world that have undergone such processes, such as: Indonesia, Chile, South Africa, Nepal, Mexico, Argentina, Poland, Ukraine, as well as within the Middle East and North Africa (MENA). It provides bibliographic information and short summaries of resources which succinctly identify the contextual changes and challenges facing women in those particular transitional moments, as well as clearly delineates the ways in which women’s rights activists sought to confront those challenges and what lessons were learned.

We hope that this collection of ideas, research, analysis and experiences provides the kind of rich ingredients needed to create new recipes for confronting old and new challenges. By sharing these texts, our goal is to make links across borders, expand possibilities and knowledge, and invite debate, reflection, and inspiration for women’s rights organizations and activists in the MENA region. While every moment and space has its own unique flavor and history, highlighting connections to similar challenges and aspirations allows us all to bring things in conversation with one another, imagine a new vantage point into a problem, and increase our sense of belonging and purpose and thus our capacity to stay strong in the face of the seemingly impossible. It is the collective strength of a movement that gives it the power to create change. The goal with this publication is not that one specific text will necessarily help illuminate new solutions, but that the combined knowledge and analysis from a variety of sources will provide readers with an opportunity to expand their horizons and foster connections. In our small way, we hope to contribute to furthering the democratization of knowledge, and supporting women’s rights movements in the MENA to continue building an inclusive transition process that will result in advancements of social justice and gender equality.
