Leah Tumbalang
Leah Tumbalang était une femme lumad de Mindanao, aux Philippines. L’histoire du peuple autochtone Lumad recouvre des générations de résistance à l'exploitation minière à grande échelle par les entreprises, la protection des domaines ancestraux, des ressources et de la culture, et la lutte pour le droit à l'autodétermination.
Leah était une leader lumad, ainsi qu’une dirigeante du Kaugalingong Sistema Igpasasindog tu Lumadnong Ogpaan (Kasilo), une organisation paysanne lumad plaidant contre l'arrivée des sociétés minières à Bukidnon, dans la province de Mindanao. Elle s’est montrée inébranlable dans son activisme antimines, militant avec ferveur contre les effets dévastateurs de l'extraction minière sur l'environnement et les terres des peuples autochtones. Leah était également une organisatrice de la liste du parti Bayan Muna, membre du parti politique de gauche Makabayan.
Depuis près d’une décennie, Leah (ainsi que d’autres membres de Kasilo) recevait des menaces du fait qu'elle codirigeait l'opposition contre le déploiement de groupes paramilitaires soupçonnés d’être soutenus par des intérêts miniers.
« En tant que leader des Lumad au sein de leur communauté, elle est au premier plan pour lutter en faveur de leurs droits à la terre ancestrale et à l'autodétermination ». - Organisation régionale lumad de Kalumbay
Être en première ligne de la résistance implique également souvent d’être la cible de violences et victime de l’impunité. Leah a non seulement reçu de nombreuses menaces de mort, mais elle a été assassinée le 23 août 2019 à Valencia, dans la province de Bukidnon.
Selon un rapport de Global Witness, « les Philippines sont le pays à avoir été le plus touché en chiffre absolu » pour ce qui est des meurtres d’activistes écologistes en 2018.

Paulina Cruz Ruiz
Paulina Cruz Ruiz, from the Rabinal, Baja Verapaz region of Guatemala, was an ancestral Maya Achí (Indigenous) authority and a human rights defender.
She was actively involved in community organizing and resistance, including legal measures against mining projects on Indigenous territory, projects that would severely affect and damage the socio-environmental fabric.
“The extractive industry model promoted by the Guatemalan government and the construction of large-scale development projects on indigenous lands without community consent has been a source of ongoing disputes with resistance movements.” - Minority Rights Group International
Paulina was also part of the March for Dignity, Life and Justice, in which on 1 May 2019 thousands of Guatemalans started a march of eight days against corruption and impunity in the prosecution and assassinations of human rights, peasant and Indigenous leaders and land defenders.
Paulina was murdered on 14 September 2019 near her home in the village of Xococ.
According to the Minority Rights Group International, “one of the major ongoing issues affecting Mayan communities is the increasing activity of the mining industry.”

Remembering: A Tribute to WHRDs no longer with us
AWID honors feminists and Women Human Rights Defenders (WHRDs) who have died and whose contributions to the advancement of human rights are very much missed.
Celebrating Activists and WHRDs
AWID’s WHRD Tribute is a photo exhibition featuring feminist, women’s rights and social justice activists from around the world who are no longer with us.
The Tribute was first launched in 2012, at AWID’s 12th International Forum, in Turkey. It took shape with a physical exhibit of portraits and biographies of feminists and activists who passed away. The initiative was described by Forum participants as being a unique, moving and energizing way to commemorate our collective history.
At the 13th International Forum in Brazil, we honored activists and WHRDs with a mural unveiling ceremony in four languages, a dance performance and a Brazilian ritual.
In between the events, the Tribute lives as an online gallery that is updated every year as part of the 16 Days Campaign Against Gender Based Violence (25 November – 10 December).
Contributions from all over the world
Since 2012, through our annual Tribute to Women Human Rights Defenders (WHRDs) no longer with us, over 400 feminists and WHRDs from 11 regions and 80 countries have been featured.
AWID would like to thank the families and organizations who shared their personal stories and contributed to this memorial. We join them in continuing the remarkable work of these women and forging efforts to ensure justice is achieved in cases that remain in impunity.

The violence and threaths against WHRDs persist
In addition to paying homage to these incredible activists, the Tribute particularly sheds light on the plight of WHRDs who have been assassinated or disappeared.
One third of those featured in the Tribute were activists who have been murdered or disappeared in suspicious circumstances. They were specifically targeted for who they were and the work they did to challenge:
- State power
- Heteronormativity
- Fundamentalisms
- Corporations
- Patriarchy
- Organized Crime
- Corruption
- Militarization…
Women like Agnes Torres, from Mexico, was killed because of her gender identity and sexual orientation; or Cheryl Ananayo, an environmental activist from the Philippines was assassinated as she struggled against a mining company; or Ruqia Hassan, a Syrian independent journalist and blogger killed for her criticism of ISIS. And so many others.
With the WHRD Tribute, we bring them all into our collective memory and carry their legacy of struggle as our torch in the feminists’ and women’s rights movements. We recognize that security, safety and self-care must be a priority in all our political agendas. And we call on to governments and international bodies to collectively address violence against feminists and WHRDs.
We believe this is a critical step to ensure the sustainability of our movements for gender equality, women’s rights, and justice for all.

Vous êtes-vous déjà demandé à quoi ressemblaient les budgets des organisations féministes ?
En 2023, le budget annuel médian des organisations féministes et de défense des droits des femmes était de 22 000 USD. Cette médiane masque de profondes inégalités : quelques groupes accèdent à des ressources considérables, tandis que la grande majorité survit avec des budgets très limités.
Un examen plus attentif des budgets réels révèle une immense diversité et une grande disparité dans les revenus.
Explorez les données relatives à la taille des budgets féministes
Snippet FEA What if we perceived land (EN)
What if we perceived land and Nature not as private property to exploit, but as a whole to live in, learn from, and harmoniously coexist with? What if we repaired our relationships with the land and embraced more sustainable alternatives that nurture both the planet and its communities?
Nous Sommes la Solution (We Are the Solution, NSS) is one of many women-led movements striving to do this. This is their story.
