Join AWID’s feminist artist-in-residence Ika Vantiani and Indonesian rapper Yacko for a special live collage workshop and performance event, to celebrate and pay tribute to feminist human rights defenders who are no longer with us. Participants will be guided through creating their own WHRD tribute artwork inspired by a feminist human rights defender of their choosing, while jamming to a curated playlist of feminist music from Indonesia and beyond.

Every year, AWID seeks to renew and enrich the perspectives and experience reflected in our Board of Directors by bringing in new members. 

What is the Board’s role?

Our Board of Directors is critical to ensuring AWID effectively fulfills its mission to support feminist movements around the world to thrive. Our Board reflects a range of geographies, struggles and perspectives--part of the diversity and strength of feminist movements.

AWID is launching a call for participation in a Feminist Journalist Program. 

Currently, we are looking for individuals to serve 3-year terms on AWID’s Board, starting in early 2022. This is an opportunity to contribute to our organisation’s governance and to be part of an amazing group of feminists from around the world. 

Please help us to identify thoughtful and bold feminists to nominate for election by July 2, 2021.

A conversation on how feminism shapes systemic alternatives and doesn’t 

On September 23rd and October 13th, 2020, a small group of diverse feminist activists working toward transformative change, met to discuss how feminism has shaped or is currently shaping systemic alternatives. We present these notes from what was a very rich conversation, with gratitude to all those who shared their experiences, knowledge, and passion to build a better world. 

Date: 1 - 30 September 2021

Dear friends,

This 2020 has been a challenging year that’s demanded from many of us to be like the lotus flower, who grows amid murky pond waters, drawing strength from the adversity. Much like many feminist activists and organizations, who each day continue to transform their world, creating feminist realities, alternative ways of living and working in synergy with people and planet.
