Women's Protection And Empowerment

Our response in humanitarian settings, the services we provide and the access or barriers to them affect people differently. Part of the reason for this are our interconnected social categorizations (gender, race, class, sexual orientation, disability). These overlapping identities contribute to systems of oppression, discrimination or disadvantage. So, how can we adopt and incorporate an intersectional view to our work? In this episode we'll talk about this from a practical and academic perspective, what this means, what it looks like, approaches and also misuses. *Links referenced in the episode: Intersectionality Matters Podcast: https://aapf.org/podcast SASA Together: http://raisingvoices.org/sasatogether/ Kiffe Ta Race: https://www.binge.audio/category/kiffetarace/ GADN Thinkpiece: https://static1.squarespace.com/static/536c4ee8e4b0b60bc6ca7c74/t/5a130e9d53450a0abd9c0f8f/1511198367912/Intersectionality+GADN+thinkpiece+November+2017.pdf Intersectionality Zine: http://preventgbvafrica.org/wp-content/upl
