There have been moments this year with little hope to hold onto. In those moments, we found ourselves returning to Arundhati Roy’s words:
“Another world is not only possible; she is on her way. On a quiet day, I can hear her breathing.”
The challenges have taken many forms: a pervasive anti-rights agenda that continues to spread in public discourse and policies, and global funding cuts that have continued causing strain on feminist work. Across our focus countries, this was compounded by restrictive legislation and political unrest. Against this backdrop, all of our 60 partners have weathered the year, though some have suspended programmes or reduced staffing to keep their doors open.
It’s in this context that Womankind Worldwide’s role within the global feminist movement is needed more than ever.
