Foro de AWID: Co-creando futuros feministas
En septiembre de 2016, 1800 feministas y activistas por los derechos de las mujeres de todos los rincones de nuestros movimientos se congregaron en las costas de Bahia, en el 13º Foro Internacional de AWID.
En esta sección se destacan los logros, los aprendizajes y los recursos que surgieron de las ricas conversaciones mantenidas. Te invitamos a analizar, compartir y comentar.
¿Qué ha pasado desde 2016?
Uno de los aportes más importantes del Foro fue la necesidad de ampliar y profundizar nuestro trabajo entre movimientos, frente a la confluencia de los fascismos en auge, fundamentalismos, codicia corporativa y cambio climático.
Con esto en mente, AWID, en asociación con múltiples aliadxs, ha estado trabajando para que estas semillas de resistencia:
-
Nuestras Iniciativas Semilla han ayudado a 20 ideas que surgieron en el Foro para crecer en forma de acciones concretas
-
El vídeo «Defendiendo a las Personas y al Planeta» y la guía «Tejiendo la resistencia a través de la acción» estan protagonizados por defensoras de derechos humanos y presentan estrategias concretas para confrontar al poder corporativo
-
Con nuestras animaciones El estado de nuestros movimientos feministas y Justicia climática y ambiental, los movimientos ahora tienen herramientas creativas para apoyar su trabajo.
-
La compilación de las expresiones artísticas «Los Movimientos Importan», sigue inspirando una organización más fuerte y creativa en todo el mundo.
-
Los movimientos también pueden beneficiarse de nuevas metodologías para imaginar nuestros futuros feministas (¡pronto!)
AWID se ha comprometido, mediante su próximo plan estratégico y su proceso del Foro, a continuar y profundizar las relaciones, las lecciones y los procesos iniciados en el Foro 2016 y basándonos en el momento actual.
¿Que pasa ahora?
El próximo Foro de AWID se realizará en la región del Pacífico Asiático (el lugar y la fecha exactos serán anunciados en 2018). Esperamos que te unas a nosotrxs.
Sobre el Foro de AWID
Los Foros de AWID comenzaron en 1983 en Washington DC. Desde entonces, el evento ha crecido hasta convertirse en muchas cosas para muchas personas: un proceso iterativo para darle forma a nuestros análisis, objetivos y acciones; un hito crucial que fortalece los feminismos de lxs participantes e infunde energías a sus procesos de organización; un hogar político donde lxs defensoras de derechos humanos encuentran un santuario y solidaridad.

Llamado a todxs lxs artistas y activistas creativxs a reunirse en una nueva comunidad slack
Nuestros pensamientos acompañan a las numerosas personas de todo el mundo que se ven más afectadas por las repercusiones de la pandemia global del COVID-19, en especial, en las comunidades marginalizadas que han sido oprimidas históricamente.
Esta es una invitación destinada a artistas y activistas creativxs que quieran reunirse en un espacio virtual para conectarse, construir comunidad y apoyarse mutuamente en estos tiempos difíciles. Con este objetivo, hemos creado una comunidad de Slack nueva, para compartir en forma segura pensamientos, aprendizajes, trucos de vida, recursos, consejos, temores y ansiedades, recordatorios esperanzadores y alegres, y para charlar en general sobre cómo estamos.
Únete a nosotros en Slack
Después de completar el formulario, le enviaremos una invitación personal a la comunidad.

Sobre esta comunidad:
Para quienes Slack es una herramienta nueva, y después de que se inscriban, les daremos sesiones y materiales de orientación.
Dado que aquí estamos trabajando en tres idiomas (inglés, español y francés), te pedimos que escribas en el idioma que te resulte más cómodo y utilices herramientas de traducción en línea (Google Translate u otras) para participar de las conversaciones.
Crear conjuntamente espacios amigables y seguros:
La creación conjunta de nuestras realidades feministas comienza con nosotrxs mismxs y con cómo nos tratamos mutuamente. Nos esforzamos por crear y proteger espacios seguros para nuestras comunidades, tanto en línea como en forma presencial. También creemos que los espacios seguros y amigables son de propiedad y creación conjuntas. Esperamos que nuestrxs integrantes actúen de manera ética, responsable y consistente con los valores de AWID, y asuman la responsabilidad colectiva de garantizar una atmósfera de respeto y solidaridad recíprocos.
Disparadores semanales:
Como parte de nuestras conversaciones en curso, en Slack ofreceremos disparadores semanales, para facilitar el diálogo e inspirar los procesos artísticos en forma amable. Este puede ser un proceso introspectivo, pero para aprovechar al máximo esta comunidad, lxs invitamos a interactuar con lxs demás integrantes y compartir ideas, como parte de nuestras discusiones . La intención es invitar a la gente a responder de manera libre y gradual, escribiendo o produciendo arte como mejor lo sientan.
Esperamos mantener conversaciones relevantes y oportunas con ustedes, y, por lo tanto, apreciaremos tus sugerencias y comentarios. En general, los temas estarán centrados en las experiencias y perspectivas de artistas, escritorxs y creadorxs,que generarán un espacio donde lxs integrantes puedan describir e imaginar el clima global actual (y el que vendrá) a través de la lente de las realidades feministas.
Our values - esponsibility, Accountability, and Integrity
Responsabilidad, rendición de cuentas e integridad
Nos esforzamos por ser transparentes, por utilizar nuestros recursos en forma responsable, por ser equitativxs en nuestras colaboraciones, y por ser responsables e íntegrxs con nuestrxs afiliadxs, contrapartes y donantes, y con los movimientos con los que trabajamos y en los que participamos. Estamos comprometidxs a reflejar nuestras experiencias, a compartir abiertamente nuestrxs aprendizajes, y a esforzarnos por cambiar nuestras prácticas en consecuencia.
Su’ad Al-Ali
Ardente défenseure des droits des femmes et des enfants, Su’ad dirigeait Al-Weed Al-Alaiami, une organisation irakienne de défense des droits humains.
Elle a participé aux manifestations de juillet 2018 qui ont eu lieu à Bassorah et dans plusieurs autres villes irakiennes pour protester contre le chômage, réclamer des emplois et des services publics appropriés pour les citoyen-ne-s, ainsi que pour exiger l'élimination de la corruption endémique. Le 25 septembre 2018, Su’ad a été assassinée dans le quartier d’Al-Abbasiyah, dans le centre-ville de Bassorah.
Une vidéo de l’incident a montré une personne qui s'est approchée d'elle alors qu'elle montait dans sa voiture, et lui a tiré une balle dans la tête avant de pointer son arme sur son chauffeur, Hussain Hassan, qui a été blessé à l'épaule. Su’ad Al-Ali avait 46 ans et était mère de quatre enfants.

Demo WYSIWYG page for testing
In a context like Colombia’s, the work of imagining, dreaming and even creating processes of transformation so we can live in worlds that are decent, just, careful, and affectionate is worthy of admiration. It is an attack on life itself. Not just on the life of one official, but an attack on the soul, on the spirit of an entire people who feels frustrated.

Membership why page - Angelina Mootoo quote
En rejoignant l’AWID, j’espère pouvoir contribuer à la mobilisation du mouvement féministe. Pas seulement pour les femmes privilégiées, mais pour TOUTES les femmes et activistes féministes..- Angelina Mootoo, féministe intersectionnelle et caribéenne, Guyane/USA

Fahmida Riaz
« Après
Après l’amour la première fois,
Nos corps et nos esprits nus
Une galerie des glaces,
Complètement désarmés, absolument fragiles,
Nous nous couchons dans les bras de l’autre
Respirant attentivement,
Avec la crainte de briser
Ces figurines en cristal. » - Fahmida Riaz
Fahmida Riaz a brisé les tabous sociaux en écrivant sur le désir des femmes dans ses poèmes, créant des récits alternatifs à propos du corps des femmes et de leur sexualité, et établissant de nouveaux standards dans la littérature urdu.
Son travail s’est confronté à de sévères critiques de la part des conservateurs, qui l’ont accusée d’utiliser des expressions érotiques et « pornographiques » dans son langage poétique.
Fahmida a finalement été mise sur liste noire et accusée de sédition en vertu de l’article 124A du Code pénal pakistanais sous la dictature de Zia-ul-Haq. Forcée à l’exil en 1981, elle a passé presque sept ans en Inde avant de retourner au Pakistan.
Dans la préface de « Badan Dareeda » (Un corps ravagé), un recueil de poèmes publié en 1974, elle écrit :
La splendeur de Fahmida résidait dans sa défiance de toute logique ou toute catégorie particulière de genre, nation, religion ou culture. Elle refusait d’être mise dans le rôle d’une « femme poète », brisant les définitions traditionnelles de la poésie féminine, des concepts et des thématiques (variant entre conscience politique, corps, culture, désir, religion, foyer), et renversant les inhibitions assignées à son genre.
« Il faut que vous compreniez que la culture ne peut avoir d’essence. Les cultures changent, circulent entre elles, formant de nouvelles cultures. La culture est née de cette façon. Il n’y a pas de conflits de cultures. »
Fahmida a écrit plus de 15 livres de poésie et de fiction, dont son poème ‘Taaziyati Qaraardaaden’ («Résolutions de condoléances» en anglais) qui pourrait servir d'hommage approprié à sa vie et à son héritage et de collection de poèmes (Apna Jurm To Saabit He «Mon crime est prouvé») publié en 1988 durant son exil.
Fahmida Riaz est née à Meerut, en Inde, le 28 juillet 1946 et est décédée le 21 novembre 2018 à Lahore, au Pakistan.

#MeToo in China
The #MeToo movement in China was ignited in January 2018, impelled by the momentum of the #MeToo movement around the globe. The movement was a response to cultural and systemic problems in relation to gender and power within China. The foundation of the movement was laid over decades, with many years of debate and advocacy for gender equality finally erupting into a tremendous force across society. #MeToo has been driven mainly by young people, among whom are countless anonymous women and their allies, and they search for opportunities to realize the ultimate “Chinese Dream”: to transform China into a country with gender equality.
The environment for #MeToo movement is extremely adverse in China: the rule of law, the fairness and transparency of government action, and freedom of speech cannot be taken for granted by the movement in China but are the very goals it fights for. From the beginning, it has been an intense struggle, with every victim or activist who comes forward running tremendous risks. From being silenced, humiliated, or retaliated against, to having their safety jeopardized, every success of the #MeToo movement has been won by those who are courageous enough to bear the costs of speaking out and defying censorship.
#MeToo in China Exhibition was first held in 2019 and toured in 5 cities. The aim of the exhibition is to bring the personal experiences of the victims and activists to greater prominence and, through engagement with these stories, to inspire our audience to join in the fight. The exhibition has itself become a part of the #MeToo struggle—the exhibition has been beset by challenges on its tour throughout China, on more than one occasion even facing closure.
