We’ve said it before, and we reiterate: #Palestine is a #feminist issue. At WILPF, we believe in standing together against oppression. We know that those who are oppressed & those who oppress them are not equal. Share your thoughts below – why is Palestine a feminist issue? ✍️

Thank you to all who joined our #CSW68 event. Our panelists offered practical stories & promising approaches. As a collective, we identified areas to strengthen SDG 5 & 16 interlinkages in our work, namely financing #peace & #justice with a gender-perspective. #SDG16Now
