Program



The issue


  1. Movement-building: Create stronger partnerships based on mutual respect and shared conceptual clarity between diverse, global movement-actors grappling with the impact of criminalization
  2. Knowledge-building: Create a globally diverse body of knowledge about the materialisations and effects of criminalization in different geographies, useful for advocacy and towards the further promotion of anti-carceral lawmaking and policymaking practices 
  3. Narrative-building: Create communications materials and tools - built out of collective thinking and strategizing - which can reclaim narrative space in support of anti-carceral efforts, and influence public and political discourse



What we do


    Our program is structured closely around our objectives. It will evolve with time and as we consult with partners, collaborators and our steering committee members. 

    1. Movement partnerships: In close collaboration with our steering committee, we support locally-rooted, community-centered initiatives which aim to push back against criminalization, address harm through non-carceral measures, and/or address the harms done by criminalization. We also partner with other movement organizations and activist-led funds to raise awareness and build commitment for this issue
    2. Research and knowledge-building: We support individuals and organizations to do regional-level feminist research on trends in criminalization as well as what movements are doing to push back, and then find engaging ways to share this knowledge
    3. Convenings: We convene critical spaces for courageous cross-regional, cross-movement conversations, designed to push forward collective strategizing and action
    4. Advocacy and narrative-building: We design and participate in plans for joint advocacy. We also create processes and spaces for collective narrative-building exercises, and design communications and advocacy strategies to reclaim narrative space and influence discourse
