Our Senior Fellow, Beth Woroniuk, joins Girls’ Globe’s Julia Wiklander for an episode of the Hey Changemaker! podcast. Beth shares how she’s seeing the current state of the global movement for feminist financing and feminist foreign policies, along with her advice for young feminists moving into the advocacy space today.

On the margins of the UNGA79 High-Level Week, the Ministers of the Feminist Foreign Policy Plus Group (FFP+) met, for the third time in this context, with the purpose of strengthening and renewing their political commitments to feminist foreign policies. The FFP+ invited Ministers from other Member States and civil society organizations, including the Feminist Foreign Policy Collaborative, that are committed to the advancement of gender equality.

“The hope that I have for feminist foreign policy is that the diversification and growth of this cohort could be what we need to break up some of the regional blocks that have constrained progress.” Our Founder and CEO Lyric Thompson discusses feminist foreign policy with The Public Diplomacy Council of America.

The Feminist Foreign Policy Collaborative (the Collaborative) invites journalists to join our virtual press briefing that will include panelists from the Women’s Environment and Development Organization (WEDO), Interruptrr and others. The briefing will provide journalists with expert insights on how FFP governments are shaping and engaging in these three defining events and what this could mean for the future of multilateral engagement.

At this pivotal moment, our panel of experts will discuss feminist foreign policy’s growing influence on global geopolitics, bipartisan opportunities for U.S. political leaders to advance its worldwide impact and how a feminist foreign policy agenda can help the feminist philanthropy movement and work of local women’s funds in the U.S.
