About the event
Feminist foreign policy is suddenly popping up across the globe. Pioneered in Sweden, a number of countries have since adopted a feminist foreign policy, including Canada, France, Germany, Mexico, and Libya. But what is it? And where does the US stand on the issue? In this panel, experts from a variety of fields, including climate change, reproductive rights, diversity and inclusion, and national security discuss the what, how, and why of feminist foreign policy and examine whether the US can and will adopt one.
