Much gratitude to Phoebe So at @FenomenalFunds for sharing your keen reflections on the session @JocelynBan, @RubyAmeliaJ, and I held on reimagining fiscal sponsorship at this year's @HRFunders gathering! cep.org/blog/reimagining-the… @CEPData

A deliberate start to #CSW68 by attending a dialogue on rights and needs of adolescent girls with @UNICEF ! 80% of @UNTrustFundEVAW projects in the past 11 years of funding cycles work directly w/ and for adolescent girls. #ShowUpForGirls @UN_Women @UNGEI

Catastrophe unfolding now at al-Shifa hospital: I summarize comments of hospital director Dr. Muhammad Abu Salmiya, speaking to Al Jazeera Arabic about 30 minutes ago: There are about 7,000 people under total siege inside al-Shifa compound, including 650 injured people, 45 dialysis patients and 36 premature babies. A few hours ago one dialysis patient died and 4 are at imminent risk of death because no power for dialysis machines. Three premature babies died in recent days. Two injured persons died in recent hours due to lack of treatment. There is no water, fuel or electricity. Israel broke the main water line into the hospital. There is no purified water to make the special formula for the babies, so they are using ordinary water and some have become sick with diarrhea, infections, fever. There is no food. Children are starving and distressed. There is no medicine and the wounds of injured people are becoming horribly infected, some with maggots. Hospital administrators tried to send a delegation to the occupation forces to ask for food, fuel, medicine and safe evacuation of the sick and injured but the Israelis refused to to talk to them. The hospital is besieged from all sides by tanks and bulldozers. The bulldozers are destroying areas around the compound, but no one can see clearly what they are doing. Anyone who tries to move between hospital buildings is shot at by snipers or drones. There are hundreds of soldiers in the hospital compound searching all over and causing severe damage to hospital premises and equipment. In the 48 hours the occupation forces have been inside the hospital or on its grounds not a single shot has been fired at them. No one can leave the hospital or enter it. The situation is disastrous not just for people in Shifa but for anyone in Gaza City who is injured or becomes ill, because no one can reach the hospital and the hospital can't do anything for them anyway. Anyone who has a heart attack or a stroke at home will die. Dr. Abu Salmiya says "We hold the world responsible" for what he calls a genocide. "We are waiting for slow death."

Stirrings of the Earth sails through the rising currents of participatory feminist grantmaking that laid out maps of warning signs across the regions and prepared the grounds for human rights defense even in inhospitable terrains 💫 Read it: uafanp.org/sites/uafanp.org/…

We, the undersigned feminist groups and institutions, express our solidarity with Palestinian resistance in all its forms and stand firmly against injustice and colonization.

Happy that my recent @abcnews interview on #Israel and #Hamas, which has gone truly viral as I’m receiving literally 1000s and 1000s of messages about it globally, is now translated into #Arabic:

In a week as heavy as this one, pausing to mark International #DayOfTheGirl and to draw inspiration from the resilience of girls around the world feels more necessary than ever.

As the crisis in Sudan continues to escalate, we urgently call for immediate financial support to @DoriaFund @UAFAfrica @awdf01 and @Medwomensfund Our network joins our African fund members and the Sudanese activists they support to #StopTheWar …

Can we agree to end this colonial language of 'empowering' others? Stop. Women and gender diverse people empower themselves. We can accompany & support each other. All our liberation is possible only with others. #MovementsMatter #Solidarity #Liberation #Balance #Justice

The conversation has kicked off with Anisha of @WF_Asia reflecting on who women & feminist funds are. Money is a political right. Women’s funds invest in visions &change agendas. They also have exit strategies while in support of movements for the long haul. #FundWomenFunds

Still buzzing from an amazing night celebrating the launch of @OurCoPractice Stories of Girls’ Resistance—the largest collection of oral and narrative history of adolescent girls’ activism in 90 countries—at #WD2023

Feminism, political power and Adolescent girls panel by @Purposeful_org Gabby from CRIF calls for less teaching and more listening to girls. @zeedahMM #RCWGatWomenDeliver #WD2023

“We have the right to power, the power to recover from mistakes, power to make change…you should not be ashamed or bashful.. You have the right to power, own it, use it and never let anyone take it from you” @staceyabrams #WomenDeliver2023 #GirlsDeliver 🙌🙌
