At the PeaceWomen Across the Globe-hosted webinar, “Leveraging feminist networks for advocacy”, three inspiring and experienced activists and peacebuilders shared key insights on how and why feminist networks play a key role in advocacy. Rabab Baldo (Sudan), Uma Mishra-Newbery (Switzerland) and Karen Tañada (Philippines) collectively have decades of experience in feminist engagement shaped by diverse contexts and trajectories.
With our Feminist Peace Initiatives (FPI), we support local and feminist peace initiatives and projects of our network members. The aim is to promote innovative ideas for feminist peace work quickly, in a straightforward manner and for a limited period of time. In this way, we enable network members to try out new ideas that correspond to their own priorities and those of their communities.
We launch and join political campaigns, working with like-minded organisations to advance feminist peace policy.
In autumn 2025, we launched a campaign on our social media platforms to highlight the lack of financial support for peacebuilding. We pointed out how the exorbitant sums spent on armaments could instead be channelled into peacebuilding measures – particularly those led by women.
Political work is a core concern of our organisation and of Feminists Connecting for Peace, our global network. The network and its activities provide a space for activists and women's organisations to share ideas and practices, work together on strategies and carry out political work together. Through the network we contribute to our goal of creating political impact.
