Feminist Future For Peace
IPI together with the Ministry of Equality and Feminisms of Catalonia will cohost a closed-door workshop to discuss policymaking that embodies the vision of working towards a peaceful future through feminist practices. This will be a participatory event that seeks to create a space for actors to think boldly and share practices and new ideas about how to build a feminist peaceful future and build new partnerships.
Space is limited for this event. Organizers are looking to feature more civil society actors who will be in New York for CSW. If you are interested in joining, please email Phoebe Donnelly at donnelly@ipinst.org.
