UAF_EP6: Grounding Future Activisms

Boju Bajai

Welcome to Episode 6 of Care at the Centre: Voices from the Majority World. At the heart of this series is care - the life-affirming, life-sustaining practice which honours our interconnected relationships and our commitment to the wellbeing of ourselves, our environments, and each other. As the world becomes increasingly hostile towards feminist activists and women's movements, Urgent Action Fund for Women's Human Rights, Asia & Pacific, aims to bring to light the stories and experiences of women, trans, and gender-nonconforming human rights defenders who work tirelessly in the margins through this six-part series. In the final episode of the series, we reflect on the findings gathered from regional perspectives. We explore how activisms can respond to the concerns shared by activists featured in this series, and envision the future of activisms. This series has been informed and guided by the Urgent Action Fund Report “How Can We Ground Ourselves in Care and Dance Our Revolution”. You can read the full report at rootingcare.org where you can also listen to podcasts from the Urgent Action Funds.
