Feminist movement building to ZWRCN is about bringing together women, organizations, leaders, and networks to work together in challenging power structures that reinforce gender inequality using various approaches and structures. Feminist movement building is centred on having various entry points through climate, others through racial justice while ZWRCN will focus on Feminist Macro Economics. At ZWRCN, processes begin with women’s lives and their understanding of how power operates in their lives. This starting point empowers women to recognize their own leadership potential and capacity as organizers to make change in their communities. Women are able build their political consciousness – an awareness and analysis of the economic, political, and social dynamics shaping their lives and context, which helps them identify shared problems and needs. This common ground is the foundation for women to build organizing efforts and collective power – helping transform practical needs (e.g., clean water, protection from violence, access to land) into a shared commitment that sparks and sustains feminist organizing and strategies.
