Walking the talk - Feminist Foreign Policy in action - Foundation for European Progressive Studies

23/10/2023

Feminist Foreign Policy has gained significant ground in policy discourse over the past years, with many countries in Europe and worldwide proclaiming a feminist approach to their external actions. Offering a strong intersectional lens to rethink existing power structures both in global politics and societies, it enables deep processes of self-reflection and rethinking external policies.
