The Amsterdam meeting was part of AWID’s initiative, Where is the Money for Women’s Rights?
This international initiative has already produced several highly influential research reports about the lack of funding for women’s rights. A central topic at the Amsterdam meeting was how to get more support for women’s rights movements now and in the coming years. On December 2, Mama Cash also co-hosted two public panel discussions on the theme: No Steps Back on the Hard Gains Won – Strategies to Leverage Financial and Political Support for Women’s Rights and Gender Equality. These educational sessions were held in collaboration with AWID, Hivos, Development Alternatives with Women for a New Era, and the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs. We’ll be letting you know about the results of these important meetings. So stay tuned!
