Dear John,
This week we launched ‘Our Feminist Future’, Womankind Worldwide's bold, new strategy until 2030.
Over the next decade, the world around us will continue to evolve but our pursuit of equality and freedom from violence remains unflinching. And what we’ve learned in our 32-year history is that movements are the beating heart of change.
By coming together in movements, we have the power to create a feminist future.
“Another world is not only possible, she is on her way.
On a quiet day, I can hear her breathing.” - Arundhati Roy
We exist to nourish feminist movements. We plan to support them over the next decade by offering:
Flexible funding
So groups best placed to understand local issues can achieve lasting change for women, girls and people of all genders.
Spaces for learning and exchange
So action can be grounded in feminist values of shared leadership, inclusivity and personal and collective wellbeing.
Influencing opportunities
So women in all their diversities can have a seat at the table in critical local, national, regional, and global decision-making spaces.

We believe another world is possible. Do you?
We're asking you to share your hopes for a feminist future. What does a world beyond the patriarchy look like or mean to you?
1. Express your vision by sending in either:
a short text (50 words max), ideally accompanied by a photo or illustration
a video (in portrait mode, no longer than 1 minute)
There’s no need to send in professional quality material. A video recorded on your mobile phone is fine. We want you to speak freely and from the heart!
2. Share with us! Upload your message of hope on Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter with the hashtag #OurFeministFuture and tagging Womankind Worldwide. You can also share your submission by replying to this email.
All submissions will be automatically entered into a prize draw to win a limited-edition Womankind tote bag.
Whether you’ve supported Womankind for the last 30 days or 30 years, we're the same organisation pursuing the same goals for women, girls, and people of all genders. Through this new strategy we’re excited to deepen our commitment to anti-racism, to decolonising our work, and to intersectional feminism that works for all, not some.
We'd love for you to join us. This is #OurFeministFuture.

The women are engaged in sharing crucial information on their land rights, collective saving, kitchen gardening and are a key part of the eco-feminist movement in Uganda.
