KNESWO Feminist Initiative joins the world to celebrate International Women’s Day. 🌸
Today we honor the strength, resilience, and leadership of women in all their diversities, including queer refugee women, migrant women, and sex workers.

Empathy as power for a global future. 📖 #JacindaArdern #ADifferentKindOfPower #FeministLeadership
Backlash against women’s rights is intensifying because progress is real. Feminist leadership calls for deeper organizing, solidarity and care, no retreat ❌

Great to meet @annehidalgo.bsky.social today in Paris. Her leadership shows what real politics looks like this: safer streets, greener transport, stronger support for women. When leaders act with conviction, not excuses, cities become fairer for ordinary people. ✊🌹

Screenshot of a BMJ Opinion article titled “Where women lead, equality follows.” It shows publication details (BMJ 2025; 391, published 24 November 2025) and the authors Helen Clark, Aishwarya Rajeev, Lynsey Robinson, and Kent Buse. Below the header tabs, the opening paragraph highlights how countries can learn from the UK’s mandatory gender pay gap reporting. The text notes Equal Pay Day in the UK and references new analysis linking women-led organisations with smaller gender pay gaps.
New in @bmj.com: Where women lead, equality follows ✨
It highlights the critical role played by #WomensLeadership in reducing #GenderPayGaps.
Mandatory reporting works, but progress must be broader, #intersectional, and backed by #FeministLeadership.

Today, #KNESWOFeministInitiative proudly took part in a dialogue on GBV & IPV by @EEA_H focusing on response mechanisms for queer refugees in shelters.
We stand for survivor-centered, trauma-informed, and healing approaches to end violence.

Our Board of Director from the KNESWO Feminist Initiative is at #ICFP2025, joining global feminists & changemakers advancing #SRHR for all!
Family planning & abortion = healthcare. Access is a right, not a privilege.

At the Feminist Leadership & Self-Care Academy, refugee & migrant sex workers in all their diversity came together to center mental wellness, healing, and feminist leadership.
Because caring for ourselves is political.
#FeministLeadership #SelfCare #MentalWellness #KNESWO #HealingJustice
One thing I loved about the African Young Women Leadership Forum 2025 was co-facilitating a session on healing, safety & collective care.
It reminded me how healing itself is a form of resistance and I learned so much from the amazing women in the room.

Great ProgressiveAlliance conference with Elisabeth Baume-Schneider, Márcia Lopes, @eviholz.bsky.social, Machris Cabreros and many other phenomenal women leaders! 🌹

At the #ProgressiveAlliance in Lucerne, I said it clearly: women’s leadership, online safety, peace — one fight, one struggle.
Women must be at every table where the future is decided.
#PESWomen #FeministLeadership
All #FeministForeignPolicies engaging men must be developed in direct consultation with #feminist movements, #WomensRights, & #LGBTQIA+ orgs. #Accountability must center the priorities, voices, & visions of the most marginalized. #FFPconference #FeministLeadership. Read the report:
Thinking especially of Ingibjörg Sólrún Gísladóttir who was mayor of Reykjavik from 1994 and pushed through affordable and accessible daycare as a cornerstone for gender equality and economic empowerment in Iceland. #feministleadership
On my way to Lucerne for the Progressive Alliance Conference on Feminist Leadership & Peace. ✊🌹
In a world torn by war and inequality, women’s leadership isn’t a luxury — it’s a necessity.

Hiring managers & boards: let’s talk about the knee-jerk side-eye toward “short stints” on resumes.
Too often, brief tenures trigger lazy assumptions - “flaky,” “disloyal,” “undisciplined.” That’s bias, not truth. 👇🏻
