This wouldn’t be possible without my fellow African feminists in the trenches

New Notes from the Field online from @tonihaastrup.bsky.social as part of this Special Section on #feministforeignpolicy #OpenAccess from @politicsgenderj.bsky.social Contending with the Coloniality of Feminist Foreign Policy: A Perspective from Africa - cup.org/4oItz8P #FirstView

🚨New on the Blog: After 25 years of bipartisan commitment to Women Peace & Security, the UK gov't suddenly seems loath to mention or fund it. @tonihaastrup.bsky.social & @jamiejhagen.bsky.social make the case for gender equality & inclusion in UK policy. rethinkingsecurity.org.uk/2025/08/04/2...

Domestic violence is a major threat to women around the world but it is also a warning sign for political violence. And yet, it rarely gets the political attention it deserves and requires.

📣 Out on #FirstView 📣 For our upcoming issue on #feministforeignpolicy, @karolinefaerber.bsky.social & @erdfraeuleinma.bsky.social analyze how Germany 🇩🇪 represents, negotiates and reproduces its colonial past in their FFP. polisky gendersky buff.ly/Y9B4uMH

I'm so happy about @karolinefaerber.bsky.social and my new article with @politicsgenderj.bsky.social 🥰. We draw on @maxczollek.bsky.social and @mamjahid.bsky.social 's work to show how claims of historical responsibility in Germany's Feminist Foreign Policy towards colonialism sustain coloniality /1

The first article and Notes from the Field from our Special Issue with @politicsgenderj.bsky.social on #feministforeignpolicy is online now! @tonihaastrup.bsky.social @columbaachilleos.bsky.social The first Notes looks at how FFP has influenced donor funding on peacebuilding:

Dr. Nick Maynard tells NPR he's treating children shot at food distribution sites and witnessing what he believes is the systematic destruction of Gaza's civilian infrastructure.

“Statutory maternity leave allows most new mums and birthing parents to take up to 52 weeks off work. Statutory maternity pay is paid for up to 39 weeks” right yes I wonder if anyone in government can see the GLARING PROBLEM with this

👀 The article is a part of a @politicsgenderj.bsky.social special issue on Feminist Foreign Policy curated by Professor @tonihaastrup.bsky.social, @thomsonjennifer.bsky.social and @columbaachilleos.bsky.social. Stay tuned for the whole special issue in autumn.

Feminist foreign policies talk equality, but local feminist peacebuilders still face donor scepticism, unstable funding & political pushback. Without structural change, FFPs risk perpetuating the problems they claim to solve. 📝 Our new piece in @politicsgenderj.bsky.social doi.org/10.1017/S174...

Non-violent direct action is now as bad as suicide bombing civilians, mass rape, and summary executions. It wasn't even close: 382 useful idiots against 26 hold-outs. And these are the people who dare to lecture on the ills of 'moral equivalence' and pearlclutch over the loss of public trust.

We're very happy that this is out in the world! And Open Access too... @lesliewehner.bsky.social and I ask - why did Sweden and Chile adopt #feministforeignpolicy?

Israeli forces have killed Palestinian journalists Mohammed Mansour and Hossam Shabat in Gaza. In 2024, Palestinians accounted for nearly 2/3rds of all journalists killed worldwide, some of them deliberately killed by Israeli forces, per the Committee to Protect Journalists. This is no accident.

Austerity is creating fertile ground for the far-right: instead the UK must invest to fix its social infrastructure, says @ajbrooker.bsky.social of @womensbudgetgrp.bsky.social views-voices.oxfam.org.uk/2025/03/aust... #SpringStatement

Publication alert! In this article with International Politics, I converse with @drljshepherd.bsky.social “The Self and Other Stories”, contending w. her text’s absences, and celebrating its vulnerability. I ask what it means to consider writing as doing justice. link.springer.com/article/10.1...
