Memory as Resistance: A Tribute to WHRDs no longer with us

AWID’s Tribute is an art exhibition honouring feminists, women’s rights and social justice activists from around the world who are no longer with us. 


In 2020, we are taking a turn

This year’s 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 movements’ future work.

The portraits of the 2020 edition are designed by award winning illustrator and animator, Louisa Bertman

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.

“They tried to bury us. They didn’t know we were seeds.” - Mexican Proverb 


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 AWID’s 12th International Forum, in Turkey. It now lives as an online gallery, updated every year.

To date, 467 feminists and WHRDs are featured.

Snippet Kohl - Intro EN

TRANSNATIONAL EMBODIMENTS

Feminists have long asserted that the personal is political. Crear, Resister, Transform Festival created spaces for feminists to discuss issues around body, gender and sexualities, and explored the interconnections of how these issues are both deeply embodied experiences, and simultaneously a terrain where rights are constantly disputed and at risk in society.

The power of feminist movements lie in how we organise and take coordinated action, not only amongst our own communities and movements, but with allied social justice causes and groups. This space provided opportunities for movements to share and strengthen organizing and tactical strategies with each other.

The COVID-19 global health pandemic has made the failures of neo-liberal capitalism even more apparent than ever before, exposed the cracks in our systems, and highlighted the need and opportunities to build new realities. A feminist economic and social recovery requires all of us to make it together. This journal edition in partnership with Kohl: a Journal for Body and Gender Research, will explore feminist solutions, proposals and realities for transforming our current world, our bodies and our sexualities.

Themes

We welcome applications across the full range of thematic areas and intersections important to feminist and gender justice movements. In the application form, you will be able to mark more than one theme that fits your activity.

  • Free Bodies, Free Spirits: all things bodily autonomy, gender and sexuality, reproductive health and rights, freedom from gender-based violence, freedom to live in safety, pleasure and joy in our diverse bodies, identities and communities, and much, much more.
  • Resisting Anti-Rights: locally and globally, feminists are leading the way in resisting all forms of intersectional oppressions, including fascisms, fundamentalisms, and authoritarian regimes; we have a lot to share and strategize with each other about.
  • Movements and Organizing: let us get to know each other’s movements. From navigation of power (internal and external) to protection strategies in the face of the repression of women and gender-diverse human rights defenders, from alliance-building to creative and successful forms of organizing, let’s learn and be inspired by each other.
  • Economic Justice and Feminist Economies: this theme encompasses all feminist efforts to transform our economies, from challenging dominant extractive models and defending labor rights to embodying and living feminist economic practices and alternatives in everyday life.
  • Funding/Resourcing Activism: securing much-needed funding is a shared challenge for movements across the world; let us together unpack the feminist funding ecosystem, from critical analysis to first-hand experiences and practical ways to fund feminist work.
  • Climate, Environmental Justice, Land and Water: ecological and climate justice has deep roots in many of our movements and communities; from ancient traditions to futuristic visions, from ecology villages to campaigns to end extractivism and health justice, we invite a full scope of activities on all aspects of climate and environmental justice.
  • Militarization, War and Conflict: we aim to spotlight feminist organizing, analysis and experiences often on the frontline of crisis response and helping to sustain life, community and justice in the harshest times of war and protracted conflict.
  • Decolonization: decolonization is central to each and every one of our themes, yet it also stands on its own, as a key feminist agenda of resistance and world-building in many colonial and post-colonial realities.
  • Digital Realities and Feminist Tech: we welcome an opportunity to celebrate the incredible feminist initiatives that transform digital worlds, challenge big tech power structures, and democratize technology as truly by and for the people.
  • Healing Justice: there is an incredible diversity of approaches to collective care and healing justice. Worldwide, healers and movements are reclaiming healing justice as a political principle, a set of practices, a learning journey, a way of life, and much more.
  • Add your theme here!

Sin trabajadorxs domésticxs no hay economía de los cuidados

Un Manifiesto

Como movimientos feministas y sindicales, juntxs en solidaridad, articulamos los siguientes puntos como una visión colectiva de las economías de los cuidados con los derechos de lxs trabajadorxs domésticxs como eje central.

Nuestro manifiesto responde a un contexto complejo:

El trabajo doméstico y de cuidado estuvo en la primera línea de fuego durante y después de la pandemia de COVID-19, al proporcionar los medios para sobrellevar las múltiples crisis globales que se intersectan. El Banco Mundial, el Fondo Monetario Internacional y otras instituciones multilaterales también reconocen la importancia del trabajo doméstico y de cuidados para el sostenimiento de la economía. Sin embargo, vemos que esta atención adopta un enfoque utilitarista (es decir, el trabajo de cuidados contribuye a sostener a la economía "productiva") centrado en el lucro, sin reconocer los cuidados como un derecho humano y un bien público, ni prestar atención a lxs trabajadorxs que realizan la mayor parte de este trabajo.

El manifiesto está disponible en inglés, francés, español, amárico y tailandés.

¡Vente bien! Y muestra tus fuentes…

You want this pussy? Let me see that paper. (Seriously, where are your test results? Digital copy is fine.)

Si quieres esta concha, déjame ver ese papel (En serio, ¿dónde está el resultado de tu prueba? En versión digital está bien)

Construction d’économies féministes

La construction d’économies féministes a pour objet de créer un monde où l’air est respirable et l’eau buvable, où le travail est significatif et où nous bénéficions de soins pour nos communautés et nous-mêmes, où chacun-e peut jouir de son autonomie économique, sexuelle et politique.  


Dans ce monde où nous vivons aujourd’hui, l’économie continue de s’appuyer sur le travail de soins non rémunéré et sous-évalué des femmes au service des autres. La poursuite de la “croissance” ne fait que développer l’extractivisme--un modèle de développement fondé sur l’extraction et l’exploitation massives des ressources naturelles, qui continue de détruire les populations et la planète tandis qu’elle concentre les richesses entre les mains des élites mondiales. Parallèlement, l’accès aux soins de santé, l’éducation, les salaires décents et la sécurité sociale sont réservés à une poignée de privilégiés. Ce modèle économique repose sur la suprématie blanche, le colonialisme et le patriarcat.

En adoptant la seule « approche pour l’autonomisation économiques des femmes», on ne fait guère qu’intégrer davantage les femmes dans ce système. Cela peut constituer un moyen temporaire de survie. Nous devons semer les graines d’un nouveau monde possible pendant que nous abattons les murs du monde existant.


Nous croyons en la capacité des mouvements féministes à créer de vastes alliances entre mouvements qui leur permettent d’oeuvrer pour le changement. En multipliant les propositions et visions féministes, nous cherchons à construire les nouveaux paradigmes d’économies plus justes.

Notre approche doit être interconnectée et intersectionnelle, car nous ne pourrons jouir d’aucune autonomie sexuelle et corporelle tant que chacun·e d’entre nous ne jouira pas de ses droits économique ni d’une autonomie financière. Nous voulons travailler avec celles et ceux qui s’opposent à la montée mondiale de la droite conservatrice et des fondamentalismes religieux et la contrent, car tant que nous n’aurons pas ébranlé les fondements même du système actuel, aucune économie ne saura être juste.


Nos Actions

Notre travail conteste le système de l’intérieur et met en évidence ses injustices fondamentales.

  • Promouvoir des programmes féministes : Nous nous opposons au pouvoir des entreprises et à l’impunité concernant les violations des droits humains en travaillant avec des allié-e-s afin de nous assurer que les perspectives féministes, relatives aux droit des femmes et à la justice de genre sont intégrées dans les espaces politiques. A titre d’exemple, vous pouvez vous informer sur le futur instrument juridiquement contraignant concernant “les sociétés transnationales et autres entreprises en matière de droits humains” au Conseil des droits humains des Nations Unies.

  • Mobiliser des actions solidaires : Nous oeuvrons à renforcer les liens qui existent entre les mouvements féministes et les mouvements en faveur de la justice fiscale, y compris à réclamer les ressources publiques perdues à cause de flux financiers illicites afin de garantir une justice de genre et sociale.

  • Enrichir nos connaissances : Nous fournissons aux Défenseuses des droits humains (WHRD) des informations stratégiques qui s’avèrent vitales dans la lutte contre le pouvoir des entreprises et l’extractivisme. Nous contribuerons à développer une base de connaissances autour du financement local et mondial et les mécanismes d’investissements qui alimentent l’extractivisme.

  • Créer et élargir les alternatives : Nous participons et mobilisons nos membres et nos mouvements à envisager des économies féministes et à partager nos savoirs, nos pratiques et nos programmes féministes en faveur d’une justice économique.


« La révolution corporative s’effondrera si nous refusons d’acheter ce qu’ils nous vendent: leurs idées, leurs versions de l’histoire, leurs guerres, leurs armes, leur notion d’inéluctabilité. Un autre monde est non seulement possible, mais il est aussi déjà en bonne voie. Quand tout est tranquille, je peux l’entendre respirer. » Arundhati Roy, War Talk.

Metzineres

When walking in the heart of the Raval district of Barcelona, you might come across Metzineres, a feminist cooperative by and for womxn2 who use drugs surviving multiple situations of vulnerability.

Imagine a place free of stigma, where womxn can be safe. A safe place that provides shelter, support and accompaniment for womxn whose rights are systematically violated by the war on drugs and those who experience violence, discrimination and repression as a result.

Right outside the entrance, passers by and visitors are greeted with a massive chalkboard that outlines tips, tricks, wishes and drawings by drug users. There is also a calendar that boasts a range of activities self-organized by the Metzineres community. Whether it’s hairdressing and cosmetics workshops, radio shows, theater, communal meals offered to the community, or self-defense classes - there is always something going on.

The cooperative provides safe consumption sites as well as utilities that cover people’s basic needs. There are beds, storage spaces, showers, toilets, washing machines and a small outdoor terrace where people can chill or have a goat gardening.

Metzineres operates within a harm reduction framework, which attempts to reduce the negative consequences of using drugs. But harm reduction is so much more than a set of practices: it is a politics anchored in social justice, dignity and rights for people who use drugs.

2 Womxn is a term used by the collective to describe cis and trans women as well as non-binary people

Our Vision: Economic Justice in a Feminist World

As feminists struggling for gender, peace, economic, social and environmental justice, we know there is no single recipe for success but an array of possibilities that can and are making change happen. The menu of options is as diverse as our movements and the communities in which we live and struggle.


Before we dare to present some of the feminist imaginations for another world, here are the principles around which we base our propositions:

1. Self-determined development from the local to the global

We believe there is no one model for all and that everyone has a right to claim and contribute to building another world that is possible, as the World Social Forum motto puts it.

This includes the right to participate in democratic governance and to influence one’s future – politically, economically, socially and culturally.

Economic self-determination gives peoples the ability to take control over their natural resources and use those resources for their own ends or collective use. Furthermore, women’s economic agency is fundamental to mitigating the often cyclical nature of poverty, denial of education, safety, and security.

2. Rights, substantive equality and justice are at the core of the economy

The principle of substantive equality is laid out in the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW) and other international human rights instruments. This principle is fundamental for development and achieving a just economy as it affirms that all human beings are born free and equal.

Non-discrimination is an integral part of the principle of equality that ensures that no one is denied their rights because of factors such as race, gender, language, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, political or other opinion, national or social origin, property or birth.

The inherent dignity of all persons without distinction must be upheld and respected. While States are responsible for ensuring the use of maximum available resources for the fulfilment of human rights, reclaiming rights and dignity is fundamentally a key space for civil society struggle and  popular mobilization.

3. Just distribution for all, without monopolization (the anti-greed principle)

This principle, exercised through organized efforts to transform unjust institutions, guides the restoration of balance between "participation" (input) and "distribution" (output) when either principle is violated.

It puts limits on monopolistic accumulations of capital and other abuses of property. This concept is founded on an economy model that is based on fairness, and justice.

4. Feminist and cross-movement solidarity is key

In order to make change happen, we need strong and diverse feminist networks. We need movements building solidarity from the personal to the political, from the local to the global and back.

Building collective power through movements helps convert the struggle for human rights, equality and justice into a political force for change that cannot be ignored.

“Only movements can create sustained change at the levels that policy and legislation alone cannot achieve.”
