At a time when global crises and attacks on human rights are accelerating, we don’t have the luxury to simply respond to backlash. Progress requires a sustainable movement rooted in shared leadership, collective action, and the expertise of local women leading change. youtu.be/xg2Xivjix5s?...

Tomorrow, the GCEFL, @equalitynow.bsky.social, TrustLaw by the Thomson Reuters Foundation, and the World Bank Group are hosting a conversation on the sidelines of UNGA on one of the most under-resourced, highest-leverage investments in global development: gender equality legal reform.

As we approach the anniversary of the "Woman, Life, Freedom" revolution, we recognize the movement's success in transforming the fundamental concepts of freedom, human dignity, and the struggle for women's liberation into a transnational and widespread demand.

We mourn the passing of feminist pioneer, Robin Morgan, whose work helped shape the global women’s movement & became part of the lineage that inspired the creation of WLP. Read a reflection from our Founder, Mahnaz Afkhami, on a meaningful moment she shared with Robin: wlp.digital/robin

Gloria Steinem spent more than six decades advancing women’s rights and challenging the power structures that perpetuate inequality and oppression. She understood that movements are not sustained by one person or one orga, but by people coming together to advance a shared vision.

Slavery continues to affect millions of people worldwide, with women and girls disproportionately impacted by human trafficking, forced labor, sexual exploitation, and forced marriage. Addressing it requires tackling the systemic barriers that deny women and girls safety, autonomy, and opportunity.

Conflict-related sexual violence is increasingly used as a weapon of war. Yet survivors continue to face immense barriers to justice, support, and healing. And the organizations most equipped to respond are being asked to do more with fewer resources.

The fight for gender justice is strengthened by diverse voices, experiences, & movements working together. This #PrideMonth, we celebrate LGBTQ+ activists and communities whose leadership continues to advance equality, challenge discrimination, and build a more just world.

This International Day of Families, we’re highlighting how WLP Morocco ADFM is working with youth leaders to shift perspectives, ignite conversations, and advance family law reform through artivism, storytelling, and collective action. #IDoF26 Read more: learningpartnership.org/blog/family-...

Today, on #InternationalDayofFamilies, we celebrate the progress made across the globe in repealing & reforming discriminatory family laws and reaffirm our commitment to advocating for a just & equitable society in which every woman and girl can reach their full potential.

At our March #CSW70 event with the GCEFL, CEDAW Committee Expert Yamila González Ferrer outlined key recommendations for states seeking to address discriminatory family laws or practices. Family laws are not separate from broader systems of discrimination; they help define them.

Families make up the foundation of our communities, but the laws that shape them often limit the rights and opportunities of women and girls. These resources support efforts to advance equality within the family and beyond: https://wlp.digital/family-law #EqualityStartsintheFamily

While some forces try to paint family values as incompatible with feminism, the truth is that gender equality is central to both. When family laws uphold equality and human rights, families can truly thrive. #EqualityStartsintheFamily #InternationalDayofFamilies
