AWID Forum: Co-creating Feminist Futures
In September 2016, the 13th AWID international Forum brought together in Brazil over 1800 feminists and women’s rights advocates in a spirit of resistance and resilience.
This section highlights the gains, learnings and resources that came out of our rich conversations. We invite you to explore, share and comment!
What has happened since 2016?
One of the key takeaways from the 2016 Forum was the need to broaden and deepen our cross-movement work to address rising fascisms, fundamentalisms, corporate greed and climate change.
With this in mind, we have been working with multiple allies to grow these seeds of resistance:
- Our Seed Initiatives, has helped 20 ideas that emerged at the Forum to grow into concrete actions
- The video “Defending people and planet” and guide “Weaving resistance through action” put courageous WHRDs in the spotlight and present concrete strategies they use to confront corporate power.
- With our animations about the State of Our Feminist Movements and Climate and Environmental Justice, movements now have creative tools to support their advocacy work.
- The compiling artistic expressions of our #MovementsMatter series continues to inspire stronger and more creative organizing around the world.
- Movements can also benefit from new methodologies on Visioning Feminist Futures (Coming up soon!)
And through our next strategic plan and Forum process, we are committed to keep developing ideas and deepen the learnings ignited at the 2016 Forum.
What happens now?
The world is a much different place than it was a year ago, and it will continue to change.
The next AWID Forum will take place in the Asia Pacific region (exact location and dates to be announced in 2018).
We look forward to you joining us!

About the AWID Forum
AWID Forums started in 1983, in Washington DC. Since then, the event has grown to become many things to many peoples: an iterative process of sharpening our analyses, vision and actions; a watershed moment that reinvigorates participants’ feminisms and energizes their organizing; and a political home for women human rights defenders to find sanctuary and solidarity.

Un adelanto del informe
El contexto
- Continuamos observando un rápido quiebre de la democracia y las instituciones democráticas, así como una reducción de los espacios para el disenso.
- Las crisis sistémicas múltiples y simultáneas (de energía, alimentos, financiera y climática) continúan profundizando las desigualdades y presentan desafíos enormes.
- Las corporaciones son un poder de gran peso en cuanto a decidir cuál será la agenda para el desarrollo.
- La violencia contra las defensoras de derechos humanos continúa siendo un problema urgente.
- Los fundamentalismos religiosos son omnipresentes y tienen un poder cada vez mayor.
- Han surgido nuevas formas de violencia de género en línea.
En respuesta a esto, estamos saliendo de nuestros compartimentos estancos.
En todo el mundo, los movimientos por los derechos de las mujeres y otros movimientos están logrando articular cada vez más la naturaleza sistémica e interseccional de estos problemas y de muchos otros.
Nuestro impacto
- Para poser trazar esrategias y hacer incidencia de manera efectiva, necesitamos datos
- Para intercambiar conocimiento y darnos las manos en solidaridad, necesitamos una comunidad virtual fuerte
- Para construir nuestro poder colectivo, necesitamos trabajar juntxs
- Para influir sobre procesos internacionales, necesitamos acrecentar nuestro acceso y nuestras voces
- Para reposicionar el poder necesitamos dar visibilidad y énfasis al importante rol que ya están desempeñando los movimientos feministas y de derechos de las mujeres
