The Canadian government will soon release its Feminist Foreign Policy (FFP) after months of consultation. But what will it include and what policies are needed to make the rhetoric of feminism a reality? This webinar, organized by WILPF Canada, presented an overview of how the FFP process has evolved, including recent consultations; what the key principles of feminist foreign policy are; and take a critical look at existing foreign policy. It also provided an opportunity to hear from WILPF Sweden about what has, and what has not, worked well in the context of Sweden’s FFP.
This 90-minute webinar also marked the 106th anniversary of the founding of the Women’s International League for Peace and Freedom (WILPF). You can view the recorded webinar here: https://vimeo.com/544882089
