Forging Intersectional Feminist Futures IWRAW AP proposes to partner with AIPP, APNSW, APRRN, APTN, APWWDU represented by STEP, ASC, IDPC Asia and ILGA Asia (ILGA will notreceive financial support, but will contribute network resource and professional support) - eight networks and organisations in Asia advocating for the rights of women facing multiple forms of discrimination. The joint project will aim at strengthening intersectional movement building in Asia as the key to developing transformative advocacy strategies that center the voices and lived experiences of diverse groups of marginalised women and challenge multiple systems of oppression to achieve systemic gender equality. Targetcountries for this project will be Cambodia, Indonesia, the Philippines, India and Pakistan, with regional and global spheres of impact. We have updated our focus countries to include Cambodia and Pakistan and to exclude Nepal and Thailand, as multiple consortiumpartners have strong national partnerships in Cambodia and Pakistan and interest from country partners to engage in this project. Additionally, we sought to prioritise Voice focus countries in the final selection. The project addresses the Voice impact theme: space for political participation and citizen engagement. Over the 33-month period, the project partners will organise online and offline activities to: build our collective capacities on intersectionality theory and practice; understand how to engage in CEDAW advocacy and activism from an intersectional perspective;facilitate capacity buildingand intersectional movement building among national partners in all five target countries; reflect on our experiences of seeking to apply intersectionality in advocacy and movement building, and document these practices; engage in strategising and advocacy planning to offer a collective andsystems response to specific manifestations of gender equality;develop an intersectional feminist, cross-movement advocacy roadmap, addressing issues such as bodily rights, health rights, migrant rights, digital rights,decriminalisation and decarceration; network and build cross-movement solidarity at regional level;support national partners to put into practice collective, intersectional advocacy, research or campaignactions; and create and share knowledge with our movements on practical ways to apply intersectionality in advocacy, movement building and organisational practices, through creative communications. The specific results we will deliver include: Strengthened collective understanding of intersectionality and intersectional feminism among nine key networks and organisations working to eradicate gender inequality in Asia Regional and national cross-movement roadmaps for joint advocacy outlining intersectional entry points for collective action towards eliminating gender inequality Documented good practices and strategies for applying an intersectional approach to eliminating gender inequality in Asia Due to COVID-19 and related restrictions, activities taking place over the first 18 months will be organised virtually. We will strengthen our own capacities to organise online by undergoing training on digital advocacy, and digital and holistic security during the inception phase. In order to overcome challenges to wellbeing and inter-personal connection posed byprolonged COVID-19 measures, we will organise quarterly wellness sessions involving activities such as meditation, online workouts, group discussions, etc. Seeking to ensure accessibility for all, we have dedicated a standard amount in all activitybudgets to meet accessibility needs ranging from audiovisual aids to language interpretation.
