Women Human Rights Defenders
WHRDs are self-identified women and lesbian, bisexual, transgender, queer and intersex (LBTQI) people and others who defend rights and are subject to gender-specific risks and threats due to their human rights work and/or as a direct consequence of their gender identity or sexual orientation.
WHRDs are subject to systematic violence and discrimination due to their identities and unyielding struggles for rights, equality and justice.
The WHRD Program collaborates with international and regional partners as well as the AWID membership to raise awareness about these risks and threats, advocate for feminist and holistic measures of protection and safety, and actively promote a culture of self-care and collective well being in our movements.
Risks and threats targeting WHRDs
WHRDs are exposed to the same types of risks that all other defenders who defend human rights, communities, and the environment face. However, they are also exposed to gender-based violence and gender-specific risks because they challenge existing gender norms within their communities and societies.
By defending rights, WHRDs are at risk of:
- Physical assault and death
- Intimidation and harassment, including in online spaces
- Judicial harassment and criminalization
- Burnout
A collaborative, holistic approach to safety
We work collaboratively with international and regional networks and our membership
- to raise awareness about human rights abuses and violations against WHRDs and the systemic violence and discrimination they experience
- to strengthen protection mechanisms and ensure more effective and timely responses to WHRDs at risk
We work to promote a holistic approach to protection which includes:
- emphasizing the importance of self-care and collective well being, and recognizing that what care and wellbeing mean may differ across cultures
- documenting the violations targeting WHRDs using a feminist intersectional perspective;
- promoting the social recognition and celebration of the work and resilience of WHRDs ; and
- building civic spaces that are conducive to dismantling structural inequalities without restrictions or obstacles
Our Actions
We aim to contribute to a safer world for WHRDs, their families and communities. We believe that action for rights and justice should not put WHRDs at risk; it should be appreciated and celebrated.
-
Promoting collaboration and coordination among human rights and women’s rights organizations at the international level to strengthen responses concerning safety and wellbeing of WHRDs.
-
Supporting regional networks of WHRDs and their organizations, such as the Mesoamerican Initiative for WHRDs and the WHRD Middle East and North Africa Coalition, in promoting and strengthening collective action for protection - emphasizing the establishment of solidarity and protection networks, the promotion of self-care, and advocacy and mobilization for the safety of WHRDs;
-
Increasing the visibility and recognition of WHRDs and their struggles, as well as the risks that they encounter by documenting the attacks that they face, and researching, producing, and disseminating information on their struggles, strategies, and challenges:
-
Mobilizing urgent responses of international solidarity for WHRDs at risk through our international and regional networks, and our active membership.

Les tendances antidroits au sein des systèmes régionaux des droits humains
À la Commission africaine et au Système interaméricain, les antidroits promeuvent les notions essentialistes de culture et de genre pour miner les avancées en matière de droits et décrédibiliser la redevabilité. Les antidroits gagnent en influence dans les systèmes de protection des droits humains régionaux et internationaux.

Présentation des donnée
Notre force collective, notre sagesse et notre engagement sont illimités... mais pas nos comptes en banque.
Cette synthèse s’appuie sur les réponses de 1 174 organisations féministes, de défense des droits des femmes, LBTQI+ et alliées (désignées ci-après comme « organisations féministes et de défense des droits des femmes ») issues de 128 pays, ayant participé à l’enquête Où est l’argent pour l’organisation des mouvements féministes ?. Les données reflètent les expériences vécues entre 2021 et 2023, et sont examinées au regard des tendances de restrictions budgétaires qui se profilent pour 2024–2025.
Découvrez l’état des lieux du financement des organisations féministes aujourd’hui.

Workshop Methodology
Want to bring people together to strengthen resistance? This methodology for workshops offers group exercises to increase collective knowledge and power, with options to adapt to your needs.
Quel est le thème du 14e Forum de l’AWID ?
Le 14e Forum a pour thème « Réalités féministes: notre pouvoir en action ».
Nous concevons les Réalités féministes comme différentes façons d’exister et d’être qui nous révèlent ce qui est possible, au mépris et malgré les systèmes de pouvoir dominants, et en résistance à ces derniers. Nous concevons ces réalités féministes comme des revendications et des incarnations d’espoir et de pouvoir, et comme des réalités multidimensionnelles, dynamiques et ancrées dans des contextes et des moments historiques spécifiques.
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.

Qu'en est-il de la justice climatique? Est-ce vraiment le moment d'effectuer autant de vols internationaux ?
Nous nous posons la même question et nous pensons qu'elle n’admet pas de réponse simple. Le Forum de l’AWID pourrait être, pour de nombreux participant·e·s, l'un des rares voyages internationaux qu'ils·elles effectueront au cours de leur vie. La pandémie nous a révélé les possibilités mais aussi les limites des espaces virtuels pour la construction de mouvements : rien ne vaut une rencontre en personne. Les mouvements ont besoin de connexions transfrontalières pour renforcer leur pouvoir collectif face aux menaces qui pèsent sur eux, notamment la crise climatique. Nous sommes d'avis que le prochain Forum de l'AWID pourrait ouvrir un espace stratégique afin d'organiser ces conversations et explorer les alternatives qui se posent aux voyages internationaux. L'élément hybride du Forum est une composante importante de cette exploration.
Crear | Résister | Transform: A Walkthrough of the Festival! | Content Snippet EN
As heteropatriarchal capitalism continues to force us into consumerism and compliance, we are finding that our struggles are being siloed and separated by physical as well as virtual borders.
And with the additional challenges of a global pandemic to overcome, this divide-and-conquer strategy has been favorable for the proliferation of exploitation across many areas.
Yet, From September 1 to September 30, 2021, Crear | Résister | Transform: a festival for feminist movements! took us on a journey of what it means to embody our realities in virtual spaces. At the festival, feminist activists from across the world came together, not only to share experiences of hard-won freedoms, resistances, and cross-borders solidarities, but to articulate what a transnational form of togetherness could look like.
It is this togetherness that has the potential to defy borders, weaving a vision for a future that is transformative because it is abolitionist and anti-capitalist. Spread out over a month, across digital infrastructures that we occupied with our queerness, our resistance, and our imaginaires, the festival showed a way to deviate from the systems that make us complicit in the oppression of others and ourselves.
Though Audre Lorde taught us that the master’s tools will never dismantle the master’s house, Sara Ahmed showed us that we can misuse them. Because we had to make space for assembly, in spite of all the other demands on our time, it became possible to imagine a disruption to the reality of heteropatriarchal capitalism.
Now, if we understand assembly as a form of pleasure, then it becomes possible to make the link between transgressive pleasure and transnational/transdigital resistance. Between the kinds of pleasure that challenges borders on the one hand, and queerness, campiness, land and indigenous struggle, anti-capitalism, and anti-colonial organizing on the other.
This issue attempted to capture a sense of how the festival’s exercise in assembly took on multiple shapes and imaginations. Beyond direct collaborations with some of its speakers and dreamers, we brought on a plethora of other voices from the Global South to be in conversation with many of its themes and subjects. Below is a map of some of the festival’s panels that most inspired us.
En quoi ce Forum sera-t-il différent?
Nous avons toujours veillé à ce que nos Forums soient développés conjointement avec nos partenaires, nos mouvements et nos groupes prioritaires.
Pour cette édition 2020, nous visons à approfondir et renforcer cet esprit et cette pratique de co-création et de collaboration. Nous reconnaissons également la nécessité d’améliorer l’équilibre entre l’inclusion de nombreuses voix et les expériences, tout en laissant aux participant-e-s et au personnel la possibilité de respirer, faire une pause et profiter de certains temps d’arrêt.
Ce Forum sera différent des diverses façons suivantes:
- Nous aurons beaucoup moins d’activités sur le Forum car nous voulons que les personnes aient le temps de s’impliquer, d’expérimenter, d’assimiler, de se parler, etc. C’est un élément fondamental à la communication: vous pouvez venir au Forum, être très impliqué-e et actif-ve et n’animer aucune activité organisée (ou “session”).
- Nous aurons des espaces ouverts - au moins une après-midi entière sans activité organisée - mais aussi des espaces physiques disponibles sur toute la durée du Forum pour que les personnes puissent organiser elles-mêmes des réunions, etc.
- Nous avons un Comité « contenu et méthodologie » composé de féministes provenant de différentes régions et possédant une expertise sur les méthodologies participatives pour nous soutenir, et encourager tou-te-s ceux-celles menant des activités sur le Forum à utiliser des formats créatifs et attrayants.
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.
