In 2024, our collective commitment to advancing equality found expression in remarkable ways. From hosting transformative conversations to amplifying the voices of the marginalized, we deepened our roots as a movement that centers justice, care, and systemic change. Through collaborations with partners across various sectors, we challenged norms that uphold inequality, created spaces of healing and growth, and fostered solidarity across communities. These connections remind us that feminism is not an individual pursuit but a collective endeavor that thrives on the strength of our relationships.

Celebrating our progress, stories, and impact: July to September!

Stand Up is a six-and-a-half-year project funded by Global Affairs Canada through Oxfam. Its ultimate goal is to increase the enjoyment of Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR) for the most marginalized and vulnerable right-holders, particularly adolescent girls (10 to 19 years) and young women (20 to 29 years), including those with intersecting vulnerabilities due to sexual or gender orientation, or status as refugees or internally displaced persons.

This training manual aims to enhance efforts by the Stand-Up For SRHR project to address key gender inequality and human rights issues like harmful social norms, lack of adequate information on or access to comprehensive Sexual Reproductive Health services, lack of decision-making power by adolescent girls and young women regarding their health and sexuality, and limited capacity of women’s rights organizations and youth-led organizations to effectively advocate for Sexual Reproductive Health and Rights [SRHR] in their communities.

It is our belief that a feminist approach to sport is more than just a possibility. It is a tangible reality achievable through a series of efforts focused on creating opportunities as well as a conducive environment for women to engage and thrive in sport. Some of these efforts already exist whilst others still need to be imagined and put into practice.

This is a manual that offers a context for organisational sustainability that goes beyond financial and institutional structures and systems, to highlight how we need to address, reflect and nurture the heart of our visions and missions if our organisations are to thrive and survive.
