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.

« Ma mission dans la vie n'est pas simplement de survivre, mais de prospérer; et de le faire avec un peu de passion, un peu de compassion, un peu d'humour et un peu de style. »
Bienvenue au 15e Forum international de l'AWID!
Le Forum international de l'AWID est à la fois un événement communautaire mondial et un espace de transformation personnelle radicale. Unique en son genre, le Forum rassemble les mouvements féministes, de défense des droits des femmes, de justice de genre, LBTQI+ et leurs allié.e.s dans toute leur diversité et leur humanité, afin qu'elles.ils se connectent, se soignent et s'épanouissent. Le Forum est un lieu où les féministes du Sud et les communautés historiquement marginalisées occupent le devant de la scène, élaborant des stratégies entre elles et avec les mouvements de justice sociale, afin de modifier le pouvoir, de créer des alliances stratégiques et d'ouvrir la voie à un monde différent et meilleur.
Lorsque les gens se rassemblent à l'échelle mondiale, en tant qu'individus et en tant que mouvements, nous générons une force considérable. Rejoignez-nous à Bangkok, en Thaïlande, en 2024. Venez danser, chanter, rêver et vous élever avec nous.
Quand : du 2 au 5 décembre 2024
Où : Bangkok, Thaïlande; et en ligne
Qui : Environ 2 500 féministes du monde entier participant en personne, et 3 000 participant virtuellement
論壇活動的評選

對於每個AWID論壇,我們廣泛地徵集為女權主義和社會正義運動作出貢獻的活動並製定論壇项目。
對於第14屆AWID國際論壇,我們希望使該項目真正代表運動的多樣性。
這就是為什麼我們採用一種新穎且吸引人的方式來選擇將產生最終論壇項目的提案:參與式評選過程(PSP)。
什麼是參與式評選過程(PSP)?
參與式評選過程是審查活動提案並將其選為正式論壇項目的最後一步。
參與式評選過程的運作模式:
- 活動提案最初是通過我們的“論壇活動徵集”提交的。這些提案面向有興趣展示其女權主義現實實踐的所有人(包括組織和個人)開放。
- 在所有提交的活動中,AWID工作人員會預先篩選出一些最能反映論壇主題並提出創新模式來吸引觀參與的活動。
- 然後由不同的論壇委員會對活動進行審查併決定入圍名單,從而保障不同地區、運動和想法的多樣性。
- 最後,被選定提案的個人和團體會對其他選定的提案進行審查和評分。得票最多的候選人的提案將成為最終論壇項目的一部分。

為什麼AWID決定在第14屆AWID論壇活動評選中採用PSP?
我們認為PSP與AWID論壇息息相關,因為:
- 它將決策過程的中心置於女權主義現實中的社區裡,這些社區將在論壇上進行展示和討論。
- 它與我們的身份以及我們作為運動的支持/陪伴組織的角色是一致的。
- 它與我們同不同的女權主義和社會正義運動共同創建的論壇願景是一致的,後者通過參與不同的委員會(內容和方法、可及性、運動家和東道國)與AWID合作,創建和促進活動來塑造論壇,並通過PSP做出關於項目的決策。
- 它允許組成論壇結構的紋理(或組成論壇歌曲的聲音)具有更大的多樣性。它確保我們可以超AWID本身以及我們已經了解並與之合作的運動合作夥伴。它為意外驚喜打開了大門。
AWID是如何提出PSP想法的?
這是AWID首次考慮採用這一過程。
最初的想法來自AWID的聯合編輯和員工們。在做出決定之前,我們諮詢了一些已經實施參與式評選過程多年的社區基金。其中包括FRIDA:青年女權主義者基金、國際跨性別基金、UHAI(東非針對性少數群體和性工作者的基金)和中美洲婦女基金。我們諮詢了這些組織,學習其豐富的經驗並獲得了重要的反饋。

2009 UN Conference on the World Financial and Economic Crisis and its Impacts on Development
- The 2009 conference was an outcome of the 2008 Doha conference. The Doha Declaration had mandated that the United Nations hold a conference, to be organized by the President of the General Assembly, on the world financial and economic crisis and its impact on development.
- During the conference women’s groups, through the WWG, highlighted the impact of the global financial crisis on vulnerable groups. In their statement to the members, the WWG proposed necessary actions to be taken by member states to redress the effects of the crisis to women. They stated that other social groups affected by the crisis are key to a response that is harmonized with international standards and commitments to gender equality, women’s rights and human rights and empowerment.

CFA 2023 - Forum Theme - FR
S'élever ensemble : connecter, guérir, prospérer
Le thème du Forum − S'élever ensemble − est une invitation à nous engager avec tout notre être, à nous connecter les un.e.s aux autres de manière ciblée, bienveillante et courageuse, afin que nous puissions sentir le battement de cœur des mouvements mondiaux et nous élever ensemble pour relever les défis de notre époque.
Les mouvements féministes, de défense des droits des femmes, de justice basée sur le genre, LBTQI+ et autres mouvements apparentés du monde entier se trouvent à un tournant décisif, confrontés à un puissant revers/recul sur les droits et libertés précédemment acquis. Ces dernières années ont été marquées par la montée rapide des autoritarismes, la répression violente de la société civile et la criminalisation des femmes et des défenseuses.eurs des droits humains, l'escalade des guerres et des conflits dans de nombreuses régions du monde, la perpétuation des injustices économiques et les crises sanitaires, écologiques et climatiques qui s'entrecroisent.
Nos mouvements sont ébranlés et, en même temps, ils cherchent à construire et à maintenir la force et le courage nécessaires pour le travail à venir. Nous ne pouvons pas faire ce travail seul.e.s, dans nos bulles. La connexion et la guérison sont essentielles pour transformer les déséquilibres de pouvoir persistants et les lignes de faille au sein de nos propres mouvements. Nous devons travailler et élaborer des stratégies de manière interconnectée, afin de pouvoir prospérer ensemble. Le Forum de l'AWID favorise cet ingrédient vital qu'est l'interconnexion dans la pérennité, la croissance et l'influence transformatrice de l'organisation féministe à l'échelle mondiale.

In a context like Colombia’s, the work of imagining, dreaming and even creating processes of transformation so we can live in worlds that are decent, just, careful, and affectionate is worthy of admiration. It is an attack on life itself. Not just on the life of one official, but an attack on the soul, on the spirit of an entire people who feels frustrated.

It is an attack on life itself. Not just on the life of one official, but an attack on the soul, on the spirit of an entire people who feels frustrated.
These are hyperlinks in paragraphs where they're needed the most, right in a demo page. £2600 is an amount of money that I've wrapped some <strong> tags around, while 4 weeks – a length of time – also has had the same treatment for the purposes of just testing how typography appears on the page.
Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.

Sexting Like a Feminist: Humor in the Digital Feminist Revolution | Content Snippet FR
Sextoter comme une féministe : humour et révolution féministe numérique
Le 2 septembre 2021, les géniales féministes et activistes pour la justice sociale du festival de l’AWID Crear | Résister | Transform se sont retrouvées, non seulement pour mettre en commun leurs stratégies de résistance, cocréer et transformer le monde, mais également pour parler crûment sur Twitter.
Nana Darkoa Sekyiamah, cofondatrice du blog Adventures From The Bedrooms of African Women et autrice de The Sex Lives of African Women, menait l’exercice, épaulée par la plateforme numérique panafricaine womanist queer AfroFemHub, pour poser la question suivante : Comment pouvons-nous, de manière sûre et consensuelle, explorer notre plaisir, nos désirs et nos fantasmes par textos?
En deux mots : comment textote une féministe?
Je pense que c’est une question de très haute importance, parce qu’elle porte sur la question plus large de la navigation en ligne selon un point de vue féministe. Avec le capitalisme, le langage autour des corps et du sexe peut être déshumanisant et perturbant, et aborder le plaisir sexuel sur le numérique peut sembler devoir prendre une tournure performative. Donc, trouver des manières d’examiner comment nous faisons part de notre désir, qu’elles soient à la fois affirmatives et enthousiastes, peut repousser les modèles dominants de présentation et de consommation, et se réapproprier ces espaces comme autant de lieux d’un engagement authentique, prouvant que les sextos devraient tous être justement ça : féministes.
En outre, permettre aux conversations féministes d’incarner leur côté ludique dans les conversations en ligne contribue à recadrer le récit populaire selon lequel les interventions féministes sont tristes et austères. Mais nous le savons bien : s’amuser fait partie de notre politique, et est inhérent à ce qu’être féministe veut dire.
À l’aide du mot-dièse #SextLikeAFeminist des universitaires et des activistes du monde entier se sont donné rendez-vous pour partager leurs tweets féministes les plus affamés, et voici mes dix favoris.
Comme ces tweets le montrent, sextoter comme une féministe est à la fois sexy, drôle – et chaud. Mais sans jamais perdre de vue son engagement en faveur de l’équité et de la justice.

Enero 2015: 1a sesión para redactar el documento final de la 3a Conferencia sobre FpD
Primera sesión para redactar el Documento Final de la tercera Conferencia Internacional sobre la Financiación para el Desarrollo
- En enero de 2015, en la sede de la ONU en Nueva York comenzó una serie de sesiones para redactar el Documento Final.
- Antes de la primera sesión, los facilitadores del proceso preparatorio de la Conferencia de Adís Abeba presentaron los “Elementos” para el llamado “Borrador Cero” del documento, que constituyeron la base para las negociaciones entre gobiernos en torno al Documento Final.
- En esas sesiones, las organizaciones por los derechos de las mujeres subrayaron la necesidad de que, en los procesos post-2015, la FpD y los medios para su implementación se traten por separado, ya que la FpD brinda a los Estados una oportunidad única de ocuparse de las causas estructurales de la desigualdad.

#MeToo in China
The #MeToo movement in China was ignited in January 2018, impelled by the momentum of the #MeToo movement around the globe. The movement was a response to cultural and systemic problems in relation to gender and power within China. The foundation of the movement was laid over decades, with many years of debate and advocacy for gender equality finally erupting into a tremendous force across society. #MeToo has been driven mainly by young people, among whom are countless anonymous women and their allies, and they search for opportunities to realize the ultimate “Chinese Dream”: to transform China into a country with gender equality.
The environment for #MeToo movement is extremely adverse in China: the rule of law, the fairness and transparency of government action, and freedom of speech cannot be taken for granted by the movement in China but are the very goals it fights for. From the beginning, it has been an intense struggle, with every victim or activist who comes forward running tremendous risks. From being silenced, humiliated, or retaliated against, to having their safety jeopardized, every success of the #MeToo movement has been won by those who are courageous enough to bear the costs of speaking out and defying censorship.
#MeToo in China Exhibition was first held in 2019 and toured in 5 cities. The aim of the exhibition is to bring the personal experiences of the victims and activists to greater prominence and, through engagement with these stories, to inspire our audience to join in the fight. The exhibition has itself become a part of the #MeToo struggle—the exhibition has been beset by challenges on its tour throughout China, on more than one occasion even facing closure.

As these tweets show, it turns out that sexting like a feminist is sexy, funny – and horny. Yet, it never loses sight of its commitment to equity and justice.

Ses objectifs principaux étaient les suivants : évaluer les progrès accomplis dans la mise en œuvre du Consensus de Monterrey (2002) et de la Déclaration de Doha (2008) ; traiter des problèmes nouveaux et de ceux qu’il faudra anticiper, y compris dans le contexte de récentes initiatives multilatérales visant à encourager la coopération internationale pour le développement et en tenant compte des éléments suivants : l’évolution actuelle du cadre de la coopération pour le développement, les interrelations entre les différentes sources de financement du développement, les synergies existantes entre les différents objectifs de financement propres aux trois dimensions du développement durable (économique, sociale et environnementale) et la nécessité de soutenir le programme de développement des Nations Unies au-delà de 2015, et, enfin, la redynamisation et le renforcement du processus de suivi relatif au financement du développement.
- Le Programme d’action d’Addis-Abeba a été adopté le 15 juillet 2015 par les chefs d’États et de gouvernements ainsi que les hauts-représentants de l’ONU.
- Cependant, les pays en développement, les OSC et plus particulièrement les organisations de femmes, estiment que le Programme d’action d’Addis-Abeba n’a pas atteint son objectif. Le Groupe de Femmes sur le Financement du Développement a exprimé une vive déception et exigé des changements structurels sur le plan de la gouvernance économique mondiale et sur celui de l’architecture du développement. Consultez leur réaction au document final. Des centaines d’organisations et de réseaux de la société civile du monde entier ont aussi manifesté de vives préoccupations et de sérieuses réserves.
