General Assembly WO=MEN

Date: 21-11-2022
Location: Social Impact Factory, Utrecht

Public event: Feminist Foreign Policy and Trade: add women and stir?  
15.00 – 16.30h

Trade and trade agreements are necessary for societies and economies to prosper. However, the race to the bottom activities in current trade regimes, do not work for the planet and its people. Feminist Foreign Policy (FFP) has the potential to address structural power imbalances throughout all aspects of a foreign policy. This includes the trade agenda. But what does that look like in practice?  

Please join us for a multistakeholder dialogue on the question: How can a Feminist Foreign Policy positively impact current challenges of trade policies?
