In response to our grantee partners, CS Fund's newly launched Just Transitions program is starting a Seminar Series for political education on Global Just Transitions that focus on how communities have full agency, rights and power in how they are governed and their development in a manner that advances social and ecological justice and is anti-colonial, anti-imperialist, and anti-exploitative. The Seminar Series features movement and grassroots leaders from across the globe speaking on justice for climate, labor, workers, migrants, food sovereignty, Indigenous sovereignty, LGBTQIA+ peoples, digital rights, and more.
Our next session is on July 16th and will focus on Feminist Praxis. We'll be hearing about radical approaches to economics, public health, disaster response, climate justice, food sovereignty, and more that are rooted in feminist theories and practice. Our grassroots and movement speakers are also members of various feminist movements and alliances, including the World March of Women, the Feminist Humanitarian Network, the Global Alliance for Gender and Green Action, and more.
This third Seminar features the voices of grassroots and movement leaders:
- Yildiz Temürtürkan, from the World March of Women, feminist, anti-capitalist global social movement struggling against all forms of inequality and discrimination that we suffer as women. -
Lipi Rahman, from Badabon Sangho in Bangladesh, a women’s rights and women-led grassroots organisation working in the areas of women’s rights to land, work, water-bodies, climate justice, natural resources and sexual and reproductive health.
- Alejandra Gutierrez from Agencia Ocote in Guatemala, a feminist led journalism and art newsroom that focuses on women and genders, media, historical memory and justice, and culture and environment.
