Protection of the Family
The Issue
Over the past few years, a troubling new trend at the international human rights level is being observed, where discourses on ‘protecting the family’ are being employed to defend violations committed against family members, to bolster and justify impunity, and to restrict equal rights within and to family life.
The campaign to "Protect the Family" is driven by ultra-conservative efforts to impose "traditional" and patriarchal interpretations of the family, and to move rights out of the hands of family members and into the institution of ‘the family’.
“Protection of the Family” efforts stem from:
- rising traditionalism,
- rising cultural, social and religious conservatism and
- sentiment hostile to women’s human rights, sexual rights, child rights and the rights of persons with non-normative gender identities and sexual orientations.
Since 2014, a group of states have been operating as a bloc in human rights spaces under the name “Group of Friends of the Family”, and resolutions on “Protection of the Family” have been successfully passed every year since 2014.
This agenda has spread beyond the Human Rights Council. We have seen regressive language on “the family” being introduced at the Commission on the Status of Women, and attempts made to introduce it in negotiations on the Sustainable Development Goals.
Our Approach
AWID works with partners and allies to jointly resist “Protection of the Family” and other regressive agendas, and to uphold the universality of human rights.
In response to the increased influence of regressive actors in human rights spaces, AWID joined allies to form the Observatory on the Universality of Rights (OURs). OURs is a collaborative project that monitors, analyzes, and shares information on anti-rights initiatives like “Protection of the Family”.
Rights at Risk, the first OURs report, charts a map of the actors making up the global anti-rights lobby, identifies their key discourses and strategies, and the effect they are having on our human rights.
The report outlines “Protection of the Family” as an agenda that has fostered collaboration across a broad range of regressive actors at the UN. It describes it as: “a strategic framework that houses “multiple patriarchal and anti-rights positions, where the framework, in turn, aims to justify and institutionalize these positions.”

Festival Film Club: Leitis in Waiting & Latin/Central American Program
In this selection of films you will find the voices of filmmakers who are not content with simply recording the feminist realities that palpitate in every corner of this vast and diverse territory. These are works that from their very conceptualization are questioning for what, by whom, and how films and videos are made. They understand film to be an instrument of struggle, something more than images to be enjoyed on a screen. These are individual or collective filmmakers who see film and video making as an instrument to promote discussion, open a debate, and thus serve as a resource for popular and feminist pedagogies.

Ven a conocer las economías feministas que AMAMOS.
Cuando hablamos de economía, hablamos de cómo organizamos nuestras sociedades, nuestros hogares y lugares de trabajo. ¿Cómo vivimos juntxs? ¿Cómo producimos alimentos, organizamos los cuidados y aseguramos nuestra salud? La economía también se trata de cómo accedemos y gestionamos recursos, cómo nos relacionamos con otras personas, con nosotrxs mismxs y con la Naturaleza.
Lxs feministas han estado construyendo alternativas económicas a los sistemas capitalistas explotadores durante siglos. Estas alternativas existen en el aquí y el ahora, y son los pilares de los mundos más justos y más sostenibles que necesitamos y merecemos.
Nos emociona compartir contigo una muestra de alternativas económicas feministas, con colectivos inspiradores de todo el mundo.

Avril 2015: des audiences interactives avec le secteur privé et la société civile ont lieu
- Des audiences interactives informelles avec le secteur privé et avec la société civile se sont respectivement tenues les 8 et 9 avril 2015, au siège de l’ONU à New York.
- Les organisations de défense des droits des femmes et d’autres OSC ont souligné la faiblesse de la participation des États membres aux audiences des OSC. Le Groupe de coordination des OSC d’Addis Abeba a donc adressé à ce sujet une lettre aux co-facilitateurs (en anglais).
- La seconde session de rédaction du document final d’Addis Abeba s’est tenue du 13 au 17 avril 2015, au siège de l’ONU. Les discussions se sont appuyées sur la version zéro (en anglais).
- Le WWG sur le FdD a présenté aux États membres ses recommandations sur les différents thèmes du FdD (document en anglais) lors de différentes sessions officielles et manifestations parallèles. Les femmes ont exprimé leurs inquiétudes dans différents domaines clés. Elles ont notamment déploré le fait que la version zéro ne souligne qu’insuffisamment les conséquences négatives graves des crises financières, provoquées par l’instabilité des systèmes financiers internationaux, sur le développement, l’égalité et les droits humains, et en particulier sur les droits humains des femmes.
