@ Member States, especially global North & rich countries, listen up! 📣
🟣 Where is the ambition to meet the needs of this moment?
CANCEL DEBT, END AUSTERITY & transform our unjust global economic system, which only further perpetuates colonialism, extraction & crises.
"The world is on fire. Sometimes we have to be negative...No more tone policing of Global South activists! This comes from colonial mindsets...No more reformist approaches."
- @Emilia_Equidad presents the tradition of rupture in Latin American structural feminism
"We are tired of being brave, we want those in the global North to be brave... We are calling for de-growth in the global North, so the global South can thrive & develop!"
- @Emilia_Equidad, @Global_Demands at @ECE_RCEM#HLPF2022 Side Event
YES! Loved how Siva articulated that this is why they're called #HumanRights. They're universal. Our collective advocacy on bodily autonomy and #SRHR cannot be divided and must remain intersectional.
“Certain subjects are used to divide the trans movement from the women’s movement - be it bathrooms, sports or abortion. A person who needs an abortion… needs it. Whether it’s a woman, married or not, or a girl, or a trans person. There can’t be any exceptions.”
📍"Gender equality - the human rights of women, girls and non-binary persons - it cross cuts all crises - because whether it's war, a pandemic, a climate change disaster, a famine due to food supply - it is we who suffer from these crises the most."
-- @SivananthiT#HLPF2022
Powerful words from @SivananthiT on #SRHR & #SDGs
✔️Restricted access to abortion is a lever issue to take bodily autonomy and other decisions from women.
✔️State must address that denial of abortion is violation of right to health
#HLPF2022
Gov'ts must fulfill the #HumanRights of all women, girls & gender-diverse people. This means guaranteeing our right to bodily autonomy, including the right to abortion!
#FeministsWantSystemChange at #HLPF!
🚨 #COVID19 has only increased the disproportionate burden of unpaid care work thus inhibiting women and girls from pursuing education. #SDG5 cannot be realized without adequate social protection for unpaid care workers. #FeministsWantSystemChange at #HLPF2022!
In #ECOSOC Partnership Forum, @EUatUN cites importance of ODA & adds: "In the
long run, building back better will require mobilizing other sources of financing...In this regard, the private sector has a key role to play, and clear standards ought to be set to avoid SDG-washing."
.@GovStitt Oklahoma cannot execute an innocent man. Please save Julius Jones’ life and take the recommendation of your Pardon and Parole Board and commute his sentence to life with the possibility of parole. #JusticeforJulius
