Justice & rights
Demanding full human rights and justice for women everywhere.
Coalition for a Feminist Agenda
Women’s voices at the centre of a fairer world.
We are a coalition of feminist women committed to working with like-minded others to create a new and fairer global agenda, with women’s voices at its centre.
Why feminist analysis matters
Justice needs women in the room and women’s voices at the centre of the agenda.
From protest and resistance to education, publishing and collective memory, our work connects ideas with action and honours the knowledge women create together.
