Memory as Resistance: A Tribute to WHRDs no longer with us
AWIDâs Tribute is an art exhibition honouring feminists, womenâs rights and social justice activists from around the world who are no longer with us.Â
In 2020, we are taking a turn
This yearâs tribute tells stories and shares narratives about those who co-created feminist realities, have offered visions of alternatives to systems and actors that oppress us, and have proposed new ways of organising, mobilising, fighting, working, living, and learning.
49 new portraits of feminists and Women Human Rights Defenders (WHRDs) are added to the gallery. While many of those we honour have passed away due to old age or illness, too many have been killed as a result of their work and who they are.
This increasing violence (by states, corporations, organized crime, unknown gunmen...) is not only aimed at individual activists but at our joint work and feminist realities.
The stories of activists we honour keep their legacy alive and carry their inspiration forward into our movementsâ future work.
The portraits of the 2020 edition are designed by award winning illustrator and animator, Louisa Bertman.Â
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 activists and WHRDs and forging efforts to ensure justice is achieved in cases that remain in impunity.
âThey tried to bury us. They didnât know we were seeds.â - Mexican ProverbÂ
The Tribute was first launched in 2012
It took shape with a physical exhibit of portraits and biographies of feminists and activists who passed away at AWIDâs 12th International Forum, in Turkey. It now lives as an online gallery, updated every year.
To date, 467 feminists and WHRDs are featured.

ECONOMY
Feminists Centering Care in the Economy:
A Cross-Movement Dialogue
What if we reimagined ways of caring for our communities?
What if the economy was not about someone elseâs profit but about care for our individual and collective wellbeing? These stories are about building communities of care with and for people who are historically and presently excluded, disenfranchised and dehumanized by both state and society. These are the stories of feminists centering care in the economy.
