MADRE

What we are witnessing is genocidal violence against Palestinians in Gaza. As the world watches, we reflect on our commitment to justice, humanity, and a peaceful future; we must also act NOW. Read our full statement: MADRE.org/palestine/

The subjugation of women and girls & the erasure of LGBTQIA+ people are central to Taliban efforts. Since 2021, we've worked closely with our partners to provide safe passage to those most vulnerable to violence & repression. You can support this work. MADRE.org/matched

In April, we met with over 20 activists and legal experts in Colombia to kick off a series of convenings to develop recommendations for the Principles on the Crime of Gender Persecution (an initiative supported by Dalberg Catalyst through grant funding from The Rockefeller Foundation), a guide for governments, humanitarian rights groups, and others to prevent gender persecution and take appropriate action when it occurs. The Principles presents an opportunity to address the discrimination that leads to gender-based violence, take the term "gender persecution" beyond courtrooms, and change the way it is approached in our day-to-day. “Naming … the crime of gender persecution is definitely an opportunity to investigate the structures of power. That’s why it’s so important." Universidad de Los Andes https://bit.ly/3zm2YJE

Those unaware of history are doomed to repeat it. So are those committed to the violent status quo of colonialism. In 2004, we highlighted the effects of Israel's occupation of Palestine & our work with local organizers. 20 years later, we're still here. https://bit.ly/3zyPNoB

When freedoms depend on the repression and subjugation of others, it's no surprise that communities will come together and organize for something better. There's still so much we can learn from our 2020 #FeministBlueprint. https://bit.ly/45T69Vs
