Feminist Development Cooperation Conference

Read on

After almost a decade of applying the gender and human rights-based approach, the Government of Catalonia is taking a step forward so that this knowledge and experience will result in a markedly feminist public policy on development cooperation, which will serve as a framework on which to base future planning. On 10 and 11 April, the Feminist Development Cooperation Conference will be held in Barcelona, where experts in development cooperation and gender justice from all over the world will analyse and debate for two days in turn the main elements that will structure the Government's new feminist development cooperation policy.
