 Fit for future? – A Global Digital Compact for Gender Justice 

At this event, we are launching a charter of demands from feminists in the global South on how the Global Digital Compact can center the gender equality agenda. This charter was created as a product of consultations with over 75 feminist scholar practitioners, academics, trade union representatives, and CSO representatives in the MENA, Sub-Saharan Africa, Latin America and the Caribbean, and the Asia-Pacific regions by IT for Change and FES.

Programme:

Address from Honorable Svenja Schulze, Federal Minister for Economic Cooperation and Development, Germany

Address from Ambassador Mathu Joyini, Co-chair of CSW67

Panel:

How can we make the Global Digital Compact work for the gender equality agenda? What should be the key messages from CSW67 to the GDC process?

Moderator: Nagla Rizk, A2K4D Center, The American University in Cairo
