What do movements need now? Resourcing Feminist Resistance in a Time of Contraction. Join us for a session exploring movement-defined priorities and feminist principles for resourcing, recognizing that movements have long sustained their work amid scarcity, now intensified by rising authoritarianism and donor retreat. Centering alternative and autonomous strategies, we will examine what different actors can meaningfully contribute—and how—identifying practical approaches beyond transactional funding toward sustainable, movement-led ecosystems. Moderated by Diana Duarte, MADRE Senior Director of Advocacy & Policy. Speakers: Diana Medina González, Deputy Director, Fondo Semillas Deya Bhattacharya, Movements Engagement Lead, Resourcing Feminist Movements Initiative, AWID Sunshine Fionah Komusana, Feminist Lawyer and Activist, Feminist “Church” Date: Wednesday, 29 April 2026 Time: 4:00 pm - 5:30 pm Room: 204
What do movements need at this moment?
We’re happy to be leading a session for this year’s #WomenDeliver with our partners at Fondo Semillas to explore this question, and collectively identify approaches beyond what we’re used to.
Join us on Wednesday, April 29th. #WD2026

On International Women's Day I celebrate my mum who passed away in October last year aged 90.
She was a strong independent spirit who helped and uplifted many other women. She had 8 sisters and I think she viewed all women in that way rather than competition.
This #InternationalWomensDay, we rally not only for equal rights and justice, but for the cross-border partnerships that make that sustained effort possible. #WD2026 marks a milestone in building that solidarity in action. Read the article 👉 https://bit.ly/4leLbrL #IWD2026
