Young Feminist Activism

Organizing creatively, facing an increasing threat

Young feminist activists play a critical role in women’s rights organizations and movements worldwide by bringing up new issues that feminists face today. Their strength, creativity and adaptability are vital to the sustainability of feminist organizing.

At the same time, they face specific impediments to their activism such as limited access to funding and support, lack of capacity-building opportunities, and a significant increase of attacks on young women human rights defenders. This creates a lack of visibility that makes more difficult their inclusion and effective participation within women’s rights movements.

A multigenerational approach

AWID’s young feminist activism program was created to make sure the voices of young women are heard and reflected in feminist discourse. We want to ensure that young feminists have better access to funding, capacity-building opportunities and international processes. In addition to supporting young feminists directly, we are also working with women’s rights activists of all ages on practical models and strategies for effective multigenerational organizing.

Our Actions

We want young feminist activists to play a role in decision-making affecting their rights by:

  • Fostering community and sharing information through the Young Feminist Wire. Recognizing the importance of online media for the work of young feminists, our team launched the Young Feminist Wire in May 2010 to share information, build capacity through online webinars and e-discussions, and encourage community building.

  • Researching and building knowledge on young feminist activism, to increase the visibility and impact of young feminist activism within and across women’s rights movements and other key actors such as donors.

  • Promoting more effective multigenerational organizing, exploring better ways to work together.

  • Supporting young feminists to engage in global development processes such as those within the United Nations

  • Collaboration across all of AWID’s priority areas, including the Forum, to ensure young feminists’ key contributions, perspectives, needs and activism are reflected in debates, policies and programs affecting them.

Lettre d’amour aux mouvements féministes #8

Mes très chers mouvements féministes adorés,

Bonjour encore, et encore, et encore. Je vous connais et je vous aime depuis le début de ma vie d’adulte, depuis que je vous ai réellement rencontrés, dès la fin de mes études universitaires. Je ne vous avais vus qu’à une seule reprise avant cela. Cette fois où vous êtes apparus en tant que Betty Friedan dans une émission de télé locale dans le Midwest, à la fin des années 1960. À l’époque, Mme Wells, mon autre mère, et moi-même avions commenté les idées folles et tirées par les cheveux de cette femme qui essayait de nous convaincre. Depuis, des décennies et des décennies après, je continue à tomber éperdument en amour avec vous, mes adorés, et je comprends et j’assiste à votre érudition théorique, votre autorité éthique et morale, votre créativité, votre joie, et votre amour, avant tout. Près de 60 ans plus tard, je sais que nous sommes ensemble pour l’éternité.

Les premières années de notre relation étaient pas mal. J’étais plutôt tournée vers moi-même – j’essayais de comprendre mon identité raciale, de genre et sexuelle; j’essayais de définir mes opinions politiques, mes valeurs essentielles et mon éthique; et de terminer mes études universitaires – et vous m’apportiez plusieurs contextes, des lieux de réflexion intellectuelle où l’on pouvait passer, et des environnements réconfortants et accueillants où, et grâce auxquels j’ai pu façonner les fondations de l’être humain et féministe que j’allais devenir.

Love letter to feminist movements from Your dramatically cloaked jungle nymph.

Le mouvement de femmes principalement blanches de Cambridge et de Boston, et notamment les Filles de Bilitis, a été mon point de départ. Ça me convenait à l’époque mais j’ai rapidement pris conscience que je désirais quelque chose de plus. Pouf! Comme par magie (heureux hasard), je suis entrée en contact avec un petit groupe de femmes lesbiennes radicales, anti-impérialistes, noires et socialistes, et nous allions rapidement devenir le Combahee River Collective.

Cette première expérience du Collectif, combinée aux dures leçons de vie et particulièrement les politiques raciales d’immigration afro-américaines/coréennes du début des années 1990 aux États-Unis, m’ont préparée à une trajectoire au bout de laquelle je me suis identifiée et je travaille en tant que féministe transnationale contre le militarisme, et par laquelle je m’efforce d’imaginer d’autres mondes dans lesquels tous les êtres humains s’épanouiront.

Les deux moments cruciaux de mouvement de femmes suivants sont venus pour moi des décennies après mes années avec le collectif, mais étaient néanmoins profondément liés. Le premier a été de rencontrer et d’être invitée au mouvement féministe coréen qui s’organisait contre les bases militaires américaines et qui soutenait les « femmes kijichon », les femmes coréennes dont les vies, y compris pour certaines avec des enfants métis, tournaient de diverses manières autour du service au personnel militaire américain dans les villages et les villes adjacentes aux bases. Des féministes coréennes adorées, et particulièrement Kim Yon-Ja et Ahn Il-Soon, les premières sœurs que j’ai rencontrées et avec qui j’ai travaillé, m’ont fait voir et comprendre l’importance essentielle de la nation en tant que principe d’analyse et d’organisation. Le point culminant a été de vivre et de travailler en Palestine occupée. La regrettée Maha Abu-Dayyeh m’a présentée au mouvement des femmes palestiniennes, avec un commentaire profond : « tu peux quitter la Palestine, mais la Palestine ne quittera jamais ». C’est tellement vrai. Et ensuite, tout mon travail et mes expériences par-delà de nombreuses frontières m’ont portée jusqu’à l’AWID - ma deuxième maison.

Comme vous le savez, mes adorés, être avec vous n’a pas été facile ni simple. En effet, vous êtes exigeants, constamment pleins de contradictions, et parfois même blessants. Néanmoins, vous continuez à vous développer et à croître, à mesure que vous soutenez mon développement et ma croissance politiques, émotionnels et spirituels. Je suppose qu’on se fait croître mutuellement - un processus très profond auquel je dédierai le reste de mon temps sous ma forme actuelle.

La constante d’avoir été avec vous toutes ces décennies est celle-ci :

Des féministes qui mobilisent collectivement les têtes, les cœurs, les mains et les esprits pour transformer nos mondes

C'est un tableau avec 7 cercles consécutifs disposés en circonférence. Chacun est séparé par une flèche qui fait du graphique une boucle. En commençant par le haut et en suivant de gauche à droite, les cercles disent : #1 réfléchir aux expériences individuelles, #2 raconter collectivement, #3 théoriser, #4 visualiser, #5 agir et réfléchir, #6 re-visualiser, # 7 éthique d'humilité, d'attention, de joie, d'amour.

Avec tout mon amour et plus, mouvements féministes!

Love letter to Feminist Movements #10

I never knew I have a close family who loves me and wants me to grow, My mum has always been there for me, but I never imagined I would have thousands of families out there who are not related to me by blood.

Collage of Kraft paper envelopes with the words "Love letters to Feminist Movements" written at the top. Near the bottom it says "From: FAITH ONUH". On the upper left corner there is a postal stamp. Under the envelope there is a card with a type writer printed on it.

I found out family are not just people related by blood ties, but people who love you unconditionally, not minding your sexual orientation, your health status, social status, or your race.

Thinking about the precious moments I listened to all my sisters around the world who are strong feminists, people I have not meet physically, but who support me, teach me, fight for me: I am short of words, words cannot express how much I love you mentors and other feminists, you’re a mother, a sister, a friend to millions of girls.

You are amazing, you fought for people you don’t know - and that is what makes you so special.

It gladdens my heart to express this through writing.

I love you all and will continue to love you. I have not seen any one of you physically but it seems we have known each other for decades.

We are feminists and we are proud to be women.

We will keep letting the world know that our courage is our crown.

A love letter from FAITH ONUH, a young feminist from Nigeria

Entender el contexto de las amenazas anti-derechos

El creciente poder de los actores anti-derechos no se está desarrollando en un vacío. Entender el auge del ultranacionalismo, del poder corporativo irrestricto, del incremento de la represión y de la disminución del espacio cívico resulta clave para contextualizar las amenazas anti-derechos que enfrentamos actualmente.

Florecer bajo el paraguas del mundo: Feministas de Oriente Medio en los Foros AWID

Portada para Florecer bajo el paraguas del mundo: Feministas de Oriente Medio en los Foros AWID

En todo el mundo y en todos los movimientos sociales, las personas que quieren innovar tienden a sentirse solitarias e impotentes frente al «statu quo del movimiento». Históricamente, los Foros de AWID han tenido un papel importante en apoyo de estas personas innovadoras, ofreciéndoles una plataforma en la cual sus ideas y prácticas son bienvenidas y fortalecidas por las ideas y las acciones de otrxs (de diferentes regiones y comunidades) que ya las han explorado. Sara Abu Ghazal, feminista palestina del Líbano, cuenta la historia de lo que significaron los Foros para una nueva generación de feministas de la región de MOAN (Medio Oriente y África del Norte), que introdujo nuevas formas de organización, nuevas interpretaciones del feminismo y nuevos temas en el panorama regional de los derechos de las mujeres.

  • Correct. Update or correct inaccuracies in your personal information.
  • Delete. Delete your personal information where there is no lawful reason for us continuing to store or process it, where you have successfully exercised your right to object to processing (see below), where we may have processed your information unlawfully or where we are required to erase your personal information to comply with local law. Note, however, that we may not always be able to comply with your request of erasure for specific legal reasons that will be notified to you, if applicable, at the time of your request. 
  • Portability. Port a machine-readable copy of your personal information to you or a third party of your choice, in certain circumstances. Note that this right only applies to automated information for which you initially provided consent for us to use or where we used the information to perform a contract with you.
  • Restrict. Restrict the processing of your personal information, if, (i) you want us to establish the personal information's accuracy; (ii) where our use of the personal information is unlawful but you do not want us to erase it; (iii) where you need us to hold the personal information even if we no longer require it as you need it to establish, exercise or defend legal claims; or (iv) you have objected to our use of your personal information but we need to verify whether we have overriding legitimate grounds to use.
  • Object. Object to our processing of your personal information where we are relying on legitimate interests (or those of a third party) and there is something about your particular situation that makes you want to object to processing on this ground as you feel it impacts on your fundamental rights and freedom – you also have the right to object where we are processing your personal information for direct marketing purposes.
  • Withdraw Consent. When we use your personal information based on your consent, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time. This will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdraw your consent.  

Exercising These Rights. You may submit these requests by email. See the How to contact us section above for our contact details. We may request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and process your request. Whether or not we are required to fulfill any request you make will depend on a number of factors (e.g., why and how we are processing your personal information), if we reject any request you may make (whether in whole or in part) we will let you know our grounds for doing so at the time, subject to any legal restrictions.  Typically, you will not have to pay a fee to exercise your rights; however, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive or excessive. We try to respond to all legitimate requests within a month. It may take us longer than a month if your request is particularly complex or if you have made a number of requests; in this case, we will notify you and keep you updated.

Your Right to Lodge a Complaint with your Supervisory Authority.

Data Processing outside Europe; we are a US-based company and many of our service providers, advisers, partners or other recipients of data are also based in the US. This means that, if you use the Services, your personal information will necessarily be accessed and processed in the US. It may also be provided to recipients in other countries outside Europe.  

It is important to note that that the US is not the subject of an ‘adequacy decision’ under the GDPR – basically, this means that the US legal regime is not considered by relevant European bodies to provide an adequate level of protection for personal information, which is equivalent to that provided by relevant European laws. 

Where we share your personal information with third parties who are based outside Europe, we try to ensure a similar degree of protection is afforded to it in accordance with applicable privacy laws by making sure one of the following mechanisms is implemented: 

  • Transfers to territories with an adequacy decision. We may transfer your personal information to countries or territories whose laws have been deemed to provide an adequate level of protection for personal information by the European Commission or UK Government (as and where applicable) (from time to time).
  • Transfers to territories without an adequacy decision. 
    • We may transfer your personal information to countries or territories whose laws have not been deemed to provide such an adequate level of protection (e.g., the US, see above).  
    • However, in these cases:
      • we may use specific appropriate safeguards, which are designed to give personal information effectively the same protection it has in Europe – for example, standard-form contracts approved by relevant authorities for this purpose; or 
      • in limited circumstances, we may rely on an exception, or ‘derogation’, which permits us to transfer your personal information to such country despite the absence of an ‘adequacy decision’ or ‘appropriate safeguards’ – for example, reliance on your explicit consent to that transfer. 

You may contact us if you want further information on the specific mechanism used by us when transferring your personal information out of Europe.

Dis-le-moi en vers…

Roses are red, violets are blue, the revolution is coming and so are you

Les fleurs sont en bouton
Le printemps est ici
La révolution gronde
Et toi tu gémis
