Are you an activist, researcher, policymaker, donor, or member of a civil society organization who wants to make gender equality a reality for all? Join us in Madrid next year to connect, share ideas, and strategize on how to secure more and better funding for feminist futures.

The aim of the conference is to put feminist funding at the top of the international development finance agenda and collectively influence the 4th International Conference on Financing for Development. When decisions about financing are made, gender equality must be at the center, and women and LGBTIQ+ people in all their diversity must be at the table!

Walk the talk

This conference is a key initiative of the Walking the Talk program, which advocates for foreign policies, practices, and funding that reflect the voices of women, LGBTIQ+ people, and feminist organizations, particularly from the Majority World. Let’s come together to shape futures where feminist principles guide global development and foreign policy!
