Feminist Leadership could spur significant change. This article by Devex explores how embedding it in the culture and approach of organisations could make the development sector more inclusive and accountable.
At Caplor Horizons, we have engaged in different ways to deepen our understandingunderstanding and commitment to Feminist Leadership. Together with our advisors, Professor Sharon Turnbull and Dr Lynne Sedgmore CBE, we wrote our latest Thought Leadership Paper: “Feminist Leadership – a post-patriarchal paradigm”. You can read it here.
We believe there is no change without cultural change. This includes addressing the issue of gender equality. As a result, we developed our “Culture for Justice”. This is an integral part of our strategy. You can read more about our Culture for Justice and how we are living it here.
ActionAid Ireland has been very proactive in its commitment to Feminist Leadership. This has been focused upon as a central part of a strategy renewal process we are facilitating. We are appreciative of the opportunity to work with such a highly progressive group of people.
