AWID Forum: Co-creating Feminist Futures
In September 2016, the 13th AWID international Forum brought together in Brazil over 1800 feminists and women’s rights advocates in a spirit of resistance and resilience.
This section highlights the gains, learnings and resources that came out of our rich conversations. We invite you to explore, share and comment!
What has happened since 2016?
One of the key takeaways from the 2016 Forum was the need to broaden and deepen our cross-movement work to address rising fascisms, fundamentalisms, corporate greed and climate change.
With this in mind, we have been working with multiple allies to grow these seeds of resistance:
- Our Seed Initiatives, has helped 20 ideas that emerged at the Forum to grow into concrete actions
- The video “Defending people and planet” and guide “Weaving resistance through action” put courageous WHRDs in the spotlight and present concrete strategies they use to confront corporate power.
- With our animations about the State of Our Feminist Movements and Climate and Environmental Justice, movements now have creative tools to support their advocacy work.
- The compiling artistic expressions of our #MovementsMatter series continues to inspire stronger and more creative organizing around the world.
- Movements can also benefit from new methodologies on Visioning Feminist Futures (Coming up soon!)
And through our next strategic plan and Forum process, we are committed to keep developing ideas and deepen the learnings ignited at the 2016 Forum.
What happens now?
The next AWID Forum will take place in the Asia Pacific region (exact location and dates to be announced in 2018).
We look forward to you joining us!
About the AWID Forum
AWID Forums started in 1983, in Washington DC. Since then, the event has grown to become many things to many peoples: an iterative process of sharpening our analyses, vision and actions; a watershed moment that reinvigorates participants’ feminisms and energizes their organizing; and a political home for women human rights defenders to find sanctuary and solidarity.

這次論壇有什麼不同?
我們一直努力確保論壇是由合作夥伴、運動和我們的優先群體共同來開發。
對於即將舉行的論壇,我們旨在加深和增強共同創造與合作的精神和實踐。我們還認識到有必要在多樣的聲音和體驗之間取得平衡,讓參與者和工作人員有調整呼吸、休息和享受一些空閒時間的空間。
該論壇將在以下方面有所不同:
- 特別有組織條理的論壇活動大幅減少,因為我們希望人們有時間去參與、體驗、消化資訊和彼此交談等。這是溝通的關鍵:您可以參加論壇、積極活躍參與,不必協助推動特別有組織的活動(或「場次」)。
- 我們將擁有開放空間(至少會有一個下午沒有任何有組織的活動),而且整個論壇過程中都將有可供使用的物理空間鼓勵人們自己組織會議等。
- 我們有一個內容和方法委員會,由來自不同地區的女權主義者組成,他們在參與式方法上頗有建樹,以創新和吸引人的方式參與並支持我們的論壇活動。
