RESOURCING FEMINIST MOVEMENTS ("RFM") RESPONDING TO THE MOMENT OF POLITICAL REPRESSION AND NEW FORMS OF ORGANIZING ARISING FROM SHIFTING CONTEXTS, OUR WORK IN THIS AREA WILL NOT ONLY FOCUS ON BETTER AND MORE FINANCIAL RESOURCES FROM DIVERSE DONORS, INCLUDING BILATERAL FINANCING OF GENDER EQUALITY, BUT ALSO EXPLORE, EXCHANGE AND STRENGTHEN HOW MOVEMENTS ARE ORGANIZING IN RESPONSE TO THIS CONTEXT, THE RESOURCES THEY REQUIRE TO ACCOMPLISH MEANINGFUL CHANGE, AND THE RESOURCING MODELS THEY ARE USING. WE INTEND TO CONTRIBUTE TO SHAPING FUNDING MODELS THAT ARE MOVEMENT RESPONSIVE, AND THAT IN TURN RE-CENTER HOW WE UNDERSTAND CHANGE TOWARDS APPROACHES THAT UTILIZE AND HARNESS THE POWER OF FEMINIST MOVEMENT BUILDING KNOWLEDGE. WE ARE COMMITTED TO DEVELOPING COLLECTIVE STRATEGIES AND MECHANISMS THAT (CONTINUED IN SCH O) CONTRIBUTE TO BETTER ALIGNMENT OF DONOR FUNDING WITH THE PRIORITIES, CONSTITUENCIES AND STRATEGIES OF FEMINIST WOMEN'S RIGHTS, AND GENDER JUSTICE MOVEMENTS.
