"Extractivism affects women differently" says @joan_akiiza, outlining @NAPE_UG paper with NAWAD and @woman_kind on countering land grabs and other abuses by extractives with ecofeminism and women's acts of everyday resistance. #IAFFE23 #landrights #ecofeminism

[Dinah Musindarwezo (she/her) @DinahRwiza]

As a member of #Feminists4BindingTreaty, we call for a #BindingTreaty that:

* Meaningfully involves women’s rights orgs and gender experts
* Includes and respects affected communities
* Addresses the additional barriers women and girls face

“As this year’s UN #BindingTreaty negotiations come to an end, we urge States continuing to work on the draft to move things forward towards a just, binding & #feminist treaty that protects #humanrights from corporations’ violations & abuses," says Womankind's @AlexFWebber.

Pleasure to speak to @TreatyAlliance at the United Nations about the importance of a #BindingTreaty to #StopCorporateAbuse and protect human rights #Feminists4BindingTreaty

Alex Webber from @woman_kind shares the importance of the current negotiations for a #BindingTreaty to #StopCorporateAbuse for women and girls #Feminists4BindingTreaty

I appreciated the opportunity to ask questions on behalf of @woman_kind at #cpc22 of the Foreign Secretary @JamesCleverly on how development will be prioritised in the @FCDOGovUK and Minister for Development @vickyford on involving women's rights orgs in the govt's work.

[Alex Webber @AlexFWebber]

After unfortunately being unable to go to #lpc22 at the last minute, I had a good experience representing @woman_kind at #cpc22 & engaging with MPs and ministers on women and girls' rights and the vital role of women's rights orgs in achieving gender equality.

@Hill_libraries Thanks very much. My daughter went with her nana today and really enjoyed it. Ok great, I'll keep checking the web page. In the meantime, has anything started for toddlers at Uxbridge library? Or at any of the libraries on a Monday or Friday? Thank you.
