Politics4Her is an intersectional feminist youth-led digital platform & global movement advocating for the inclusive participation of young women and girls in politics.
We are driven by the conviction that intersectional feminism is not just a theory, but a powerful tool for dismantling systems of oppression and creating a world where every individual can flourish.
We recognise the challenges that young women and girls face in accessing political power and leadership roles, and we are committed to breaking down those barriers by providing them with the resources, skills, and networks they need to develop the confidence and knowledge they need to thrive as agents of change.
Our strategy is based on 5 pillars.
-
We believe in empowering women's leadership by fostering a sense of purpose and internalizing a leadership identity. Our comprehensive online trainings equip with the tools to look beyond the status quo and envision what is possible, despite stereotypes, discrimination, insecurities, and gender bias.
-
We are dedicated to empowering marginalized groups such as youth, women, people with disabilities, refugees, people from the LGBTQI+ community, and people from different socioeconomic backgrounds. We believe in providing them with the skills, knowledge, and opportunities they need to thrive and become agents for change.
-
We raise awareness and advocate for change through our social media platforms, addressing issues such as gender equality, sexual and reproductive health and rights. We believe in breaking down barriers and putting an end to gender discrimination and stereotypes.
-
At Politics4Her, we are committed to creating a more just and equitable world by advocating for international human rights and advising policymakers on how to implement them. We believe that by bringing the best ideas to policymakers, we can make a real difference in democratizing national laws and legislation, and contribute to a more equitably governed world.
Our goal is to broaden the dialogue and bring international human rights into practice, so that everyone has the opportunity to live with dignity and respect. Through our advocacy work, we strive to empower marginalized communities and create a more inclusive society. Join us in our mission to create a world where everyone's rights are protected and valued.
-
We believe that young people are the key to creating a brighter future for all. That's why we work tirelessly to implement programs and provide training, with a particular focus on young women and girls, through capacity building.
Through targeted outreach, training and mentorship programs, advocacy for policy change, and the creation of safe and inclusive political spaces, Politics4Her seeks to ensure that women's voices and perspectives are heard and valued in all aspects of political life.
