AWID - Transforming Economic Power
The mainstream economic system and the economic policies derived from it
have significant impacts on women’s livelihoods and are a strong force in
shaping their possibilities to fully exercise their rights and live a life with
dignity. Any piece of the Forum program offered an opportunity for learning,
but in particular, we developed an entire session block on the first day—our
“feminist economics toolbox”—dedicated to information sharing,
awareness-raising, and skills-building on themes linked to economics, economic
policies or other issues of key concern for feminists interested in
transforming economic power. This section of the website has been shaped from
the ideas, resources, debates and materials shared at the Feminist Economics
Toolbox sessions.
