Remerciements

L’AWID remercie chaleureusement les nombreuses personnes dont les idées, analyses et contributions ont permis de rédiger la recherche "Où est l’argent pour l’organisation des mouvements féministes?" et les actions de plaidoyer au fil des années.

En premier lieu, et avant tout, nos profonds remerciements aux membres et activistes de l’AWID ayant pris part aux consultations WITM et piloté cette enquête à nos côtés, partageant si généreusement leur temps, leurs analyses et ouvrant leur cœur.

Notre gratitude va également aux mouvements féministes, aux allié·es et aux fonds féministes, et notamment, sans s’y limiter, au Black Feminist Fund, au Pacific Feminist Fund, à ASTRAEA Lesbian Foundation for Justice, à FRIDA Young Feminist Fund, à Purposeful, au Kosovo Women’s Network, au Human Rights Funders Network, au Dalan Fund et à PROSPERA International Network of Women's Funds pour vos études et recherches rigoureuses sur l’état du financement de l’organisation des mouvements, vos analyses pointues et vos incessantes actions de plaidoyer en faveur de davantage de financement de meilleure qualité et de plus de pouvoir pour l’organisation des mouvements féministes et de genre dans tous les contextes.

Rejoignez la communauté mondiale de féministes qui s’expriment sur l’état du financement, exigeant davantage de financement de meilleure qualité et de pouvoir pour les féministes dans le monde entier.

More than an event!

The AWID International Forum is a truly global space that gives participants an opportunity to network, build alliances, celebrate, and learn in a stimulating, emotive and safe atmosphere. 

More and more, we are trying to bring the Forum process outside of the convening’s borders. Engaging with partners and deepening relationships all year round, connecting with local movements to better understand problems and co-create solutions. The Forum event itself, held every three to four years in a different region of the world, is just a crystallization of all these alliances that we are building as part of our work.

The AWID Forum dissolves our inner and external boundaries, fosters deep discussion, personal and professional growth, and strengthens our movements for gender justice and women’s rights.

As a convening, it is a response to the urgency to promote stronger and more coordinated engagement and action by feminists, women’s rights and other social justice advocates, organizations and movements. We also believe that the Forum is more than just an event – it can facilitate a process to influence thinking and set agendas for feminist movements and other related actors.

Evolving from a national conference of around 800 people, the event now brings together around 2000 feminists, community leaders, social justice activists, and donor agencies from around the world. 

The 14th AWID International Forum will take place 11-14 January 2021 in Taipei, Taiwan.

2016 - Feminist Futures: Building Collective Power for Rights and Justice (Costa de Sauipe, Brazil)

Given the complex world that we face today, the 2016 AWID Forum did not focus on a particular “issue”, but rather on creating more effective ways of working together!

Despite the challenging contexts in which the 2016 Forum took place (the Zika epidemic, a strike by Brazilian foreign-service workers, the impeachment of President Dilma Rousseff and subsequent turmoil), it succeeded in bringing together over 1800 participants from 120 countries and territories across all regions of the world.

What happened at the 13th AWID international Forum:

• For 96% of participants who responded to the post Forum evaluation survey, the Forum was a major source of inspiration and energy.

• 98% of participants considered it an important convening space for feminist movements and expressed hope that AWID continues to organize forums.

• 59% of Forum evaluation survey respondents declared to be very satisfied with the Forum and 34% somewhat satisfied.

• Over 150 sessions were delivered in different formats on a variety of topics ranging from bodily integrity and freedoms, to gender-based violence in the workplace, to strategies for building collective power.

• The first-time Black Feminisms Forum (BFF), held just before the main AWID Forum, brought together 250 Black feminists from all over the world to co-create a powerful space to build and strengthen ongoing, intergenerational, transnational connections

2012 - Transforming Economic Power to Advance Women's Rights and Justice (Istambul, Turkey)

The 12^th AWID Forum was the largest and most diverse AWID Forum to date, bringing together 2239 women’s rights activists from 141 countries. Of these participants, around 65% were from the Global South and close to 15% were young women under 30, and 75% attended an AWID Forum for their first time.

The Forum program focused on transforming economic power to advance women’s rights and justice and featured over 170 different kinds of sessions including feminist economics toolbox skills-building sessions, breakout sessions representing all 10 Forum themes, in-depth sessions, and solidarity roundtables. 

Building on the momentum of the 2012 Forum, we transformed the website into a resource and learning Hub, which builds on the content generated by participants by featuring multi-media resources on all Forum components.
