六大主軸支持起論壇中女性主義理念實現的框架。每個主軸都以實現的女性主義理念、經驗和願景為中心，探討抵抗與主張、奮鬥與另類選擇之間持續不斷的關係。我們希望能共同探討出女性主義理念實現的構成要素，並找到讓女性主義理念實現在人生不同領域，欣欣向榮發展的推動力。

這些實現的理念可能以生活方式、夢想和構思中的想法充分表達，或是寶貴的經驗和重要的時刻。

這些主軸並不是孤立的主題，而是與論壇活動相互串連的載體。我們預期許多活動會處在這些主題的交匯處，不同的爭取方式、社群和運動之間的交匯處。這些說明只是初步的描述，會隨著女性主義理念實現之旅的開展而不斷地演變。

社群、運動和經濟正義的資源

本議題主軸聚焦以下問題：個人、社群和運動如何滿足自身的基本需求，並用以人為本及自然為本的方式，確保我們所需繁盛發展的資源。「資源」指的是食物、水、清潔的空氣以及金錢、勞動力、資訊、知識和時間等等。

女性主義者對抗以剝削和榨取掛帥的主流經濟體制，對於組織我們的經濟與社會生活，女性主義提出了方案、累積經驗與付諸實踐，本主軸借重其經驗，表彰深具影響力與啟發性者。糧食和種子主權、女性主義的工作和勞動願景、公正和永續的貿易體系等等，只是將要探索的一部分問題而已。我們將勇敢面對在壓迫的經濟體制下為了生存而產生的矛盾。

女性主義針對經濟正義與創造財富進行了廣泛分析，本主軸以此為前提研究組織與運動獲得資金與資源的主題，探討如何將資源轉移到需要的地方，如何從稅捐正義和基本收入的模式轉移到不同的慈善模式以及運動該如何發揮創意並自主開源。

治理、當責與正義

我們力求樹立新的願景，並擴展女性主義治理、當責和正義以實現的理念與經驗。面對全球危機以及法西斯主義和基本教義派崛起，這個主軸以女性主義的、激進又解放的模式、實務與理念為重心，從在地到全球，探討社會與政治生活的組織。

本議題主軸將探討女性主義治理的樣貌，從女性主義的地方自治經驗、在民族國家以外建立制度，再到我們對多邊主義的願景。我們將交流社群、組織和運動中正義和當責製程序的經驗，包括修復式、以社群為本、轉型正義模式，而這些模式拒絕國家暴力和監獄產業綜合體。

以旅行、移民和難民以及女性主義組織經驗為中心，我們追求一個沒有致命邊境政權的世界：一個可以自由移動，旅程令人雀躍的世界。

數位化的現實

科技在我們生活中扮演的角色越來越吃重，線上與線下真實之間的分野越來越模糊。女性主義者廣泛應用科技與線上空間來營造社群、相互學習和動員行動。借助線上空間，我們可以拓寬實體世界的邊界。但另一方面，數位通訊主要歸企業所有，而其對用戶的責任卻很少。資料探勘、監視和安全漏洞已成為常態，網路暴力和騷擾也是。

本議題主軸探討了數位化現實下的女性主義機遇和挑戰。我們將探討主導數位環境私有平台的替代方案、探索網路空間時維持身心健康的策略，以及如何應用科技來克服取得服務的挑戰。關於愉悅、信任和人際關係，我們將探索科技可發揮的潛力。

身體、愉悅和健康

女性主義理念實現也存在於自身：體現的經驗。父權、順性別異性戀與資本主義掛帥結構的核心依然為對勞動、移動、生殖以及性相的掌控。要顛覆這種壓迫，擁有多元性別、性相和能力的人相會，打造喜悅、關懷、愉悅及強烈欣賞自我與他人的空間以及次文化。

本議題主軸將探討不同社會與文化中。女性、跨性別者、非二元性別者、非常規性別者、陰陽人，對於授意權、能動性與慾望的多元想法、敘事、想像力及文化表現。

我們將分享贏得生育權和正義的戰略，並闡明能實現和尊重人身自主、完整和自由的社會實務。該議題主軸串連不同抗爭和運動，相互交流彼此關於身心健康和愉悅的經驗和觀點。

女性主義星球與生命

想像一顆女性主義的星球。水的聲音聽起來如何？空氣的味道聞起來如何？土壤的觸感摸起來如何？星球與包括人類在內的生命之間有什麼關係？實現的女性主義理念亦即環境和氣候正義的實現。女性主義、原住民、去殖民和生態抗爭通常源自轉型願景以及人與自然之間的關係。

本議題主軸以我們星球的福祉為中心，反映了人類與地球互動並重塑地球的方式。永續女性主義星球包含探索傳統知識和生物多樣性，並學習女性主義關於以下議題的實踐，包括去成長（degrowth）、公社共有實踐、平行經濟模式、農業生態、糧食和能源主權倡議等。

組織女性主義運動

雖然我們認為所有的議題主軸息息相關，但此主軸確實是貫串所有主軸，因此無論您提交的活動與哪一類議題主軸串連，我們也邀請您在提案中加入組織面向。

當今的世界是如何組織女性運動的？這個問題將我們的注意力轉移到參與者、權力機制、資源、領導力，我們所處的經濟狀態，我們對正義和當責的認知，數位化時代，以及對自治、身心健康和集體關懷的經驗上。我們希望所有議題主軸都可以創造一個可以誠實反思的空間，思考運動中的權力分配、資源分配與協商。

論壇是一個協作過程

該論壇不僅僅是一個四天的會議。它更為女權主義現實實踐的運動增強之旅提供了另一個驛站，該旅程早已開始也將在論壇結束後繼續。

“Now might be a good time to rethink what a revolution can look like. Perhaps it doesn’t look like a march of angry, abled bodies in the streets. Perhaps it looks something more like the world standing still because all the bodies in it are exhausted—because care has to be prioritized before it’s too late.” 
- Johanna Hedva (https://getwellsoon.labr.io/)

Hospitals are institutions, living sites of capitalism, and what gets played out when somebody is supposed to be resting is a microcosm of the larger system itself. 

Institutions are set out to separate us from our care systems – we find ourselves isolated in structures that are rigidly hierarchical, and it often feels as if care is something done to us rather than given/taken as part of a conversation. Institutional care, because of its integration into capitalist demand, is silo-ed: one person is treating your leg and only your leg, another is treating your blood pressure, etc. 

Photographer Mariam Mekiwi had to have surgery last month and documented the process. Her portraits of sanitized environments – neon white lights, rows after rows of repetitive structures – in a washed-out color palette reflect a place that was drained of life and movement. This was one of the ways Mariam kept her own spirit alive. It was a form of protest from within the confines of an institution she had to engage with.

The photos form a portrait of something incredibly vulnerable, because watching someone live through their own body’s breakdown is always a sacred reminder of our own fragility. It is also a reminder of the fragility of these care systems, which can be denied to us for a variety of reasons – from not having money to not being in a body that’s considered valuable enough, one that’s maybe too feminine, too queer or too brown.  

Care experienced as disembodied and solitary, that is subject to revocation at any moment, doesn’t help us thrive. And it is very different from how human beings actually behave when they take care of each other. How different would our world look like if we committed to dismantling the current capitalist structures around our health? What would it look like if we radically reimagined it?

by Alejandra Laprea, Caracas, Venezuela (@alejalaprea)

I live in a country of the impossible, where there are no bombs yet we are living in a war.

A war that exists only for those of us living in this territory.

I live in a country no one understands, which few can really see, where various realities co-exist, and where the truth is murdered time and again.

I live in a country where one has to pay for the audacity of thinking for oneself, for taking on the challenge of seeing life another way.

I live in a country of women who have had to invent and reinvent, time and again, how they live and how to get by.

I live in Venezuela, in a time of an unusual and extraordinary threat.

Since 2012 my country has been subjected to an unconventional war. There are no defined armies or fire power. Their objective is to dislocate and distort the economy, affecting all households, daily life, the capacity of a people to dream and build a different kind of politics, an alternative to the patriarchal, bourgeois, capitalist democracy.

Venezuelan women are the primary victims of this economic war. Women who historically and culturally are responsible for providing care, are the most affected and in demand. However, in these years of economic and financial embargo, Venezuelan women have gone from being victims to the protagonists on the front lines defending our territory.  

Battles are fought from the barrios, kitchens, and small gardens. We defend the right of girls and boys to go to school, and to be given something so simple as some arepas for breakfast.

Arepas are a kind of corn cake that can be fried, roasted or baked and served sweet or savoury as a side or main dish. It is a staple in the diet of all Venezuelans.

In Venezuela, arepas mean culture, family, food sovereignty, childhood nostalgia, the expert hands of grandmothers molding little balls, the warmth that comforts you when recovering from illness.

Arepas connect us as a people with the pre-Colombian cultures of corn, a resistance that has endured for more than five centuries. They are the Caribbean expressed differently on firm ground.

They are an act of resistance.

When my mother was a girl, they would start grinding the dry corn early in the morning to make arepas. The women would get up and put the kernels of corn in wooden mortars and pound it with heavy mallets to separate the shells. Then they would boil, soak, and grind the corn to make dough, and finally they would mold it into round arepas. The process would take hours and demand a lot of physical effort.   

In the mid-20th century a Venezuelan company industrialized the production of corn meal. For an entire generation that seemed like an act of liberation, since there was now a flour that you could simply add water to and have hot arepas in 45 minutes time.

But that also meant that the same generation would lose the traditional knowledge on how to make them from scratch. My grandmother was an expert arepa maker, my mother saw it as a girl, and for me the corn meal came pre-packaged.

In the war with no military, the pre-cooked corn meal came to be wielded as an instrument of war by the same company that invented it, which was not so Venezuelan anymore: today the Polar group of companies is transnational.

We women began to recuperate our knowledge by talking with the eldest among us. We searched in the back of the closets for our grandmothers’ grinders, the ones we hadn’t thrown away out of affection. Some families still prepared the corn in the traditional way for important occasions. In some towns there were still communal grinding stations which had been preserved as part of local history or because small family businesses refused to die. All of these forms of cultural resistance were activated, and we even went so far as to invent new arepas.

Today we know that in order to resist we cannot depend on one food staple. Although corn arepas continue to be everyone’s favourite, we have invented recipes for arepas made of sweet potato, cassava, squash, and celery root.

We have learned that we can use almost any root vegetable to make arepas. Cooperative businesses have developed semi-industrial processes to make pre-cooked corn meal. In other words, we have recuperated our arepas and their preparation as a cultural good that belongs to all.

“Entretejidas” [Interwoven women]

by Surmercé, Santa Marta (@surmerce)

My artivism aims to decolonize our senses in everyday life. I like to create spaces that communicate how we weave together our different struggles, and that render visible dissident (re)existences, other possible worlds, and living bodies here in the SOUTH.

“We carry one another towards the future”

by Marga RH, Chile, UK (@Marga.RH)

Let's take care of one another

As we continue to fight in our struggles, let us remember how essential it is that we support each other, believe each other, and love ourselves and our sisters. When this system fucks us over, we must take time to look after our (physical and mental) health, that of our sisters, and to understand that each one of us carries unique stories, making us fighters in resist

Until dignity becomes a habit

These portraits are inspired by the voices of resistance and protest movements in Latin America, especially by the key role that feminised bodies play in these struggles. It is a tribute to the grassroots feminist movements in resistance.

Who Can Fund Me?

Reclaim Power to #FreezeFascisms: Resources for Feminists to Survive & Thrive 

Feminist and gender justice movements continue to be chronically underfunded in the face of global funding cuts and freezes. Particularly in Global South regions with shrinking civic spaces, resource scarcity has impacted the most vulnerable communities. 

In the face of these setbacks, AWID has updated the Who Can Fund Me? Database - an easy-to-use, practical tool for movements looking for funders from philanthropic foundations, multilateral funders to women’s and feminist funds to support vital lifesaving efforts.
