Christian Aid and Women’s International Peace Centre, (WIPC) Uganda would like to invite you to an online convening of feminist thinkers, practitioners, and activists on 12^th May at 12 PM UK time/4.30 PM New Delhi/2 PM Nairobi. At the convening we want to explore what a genuinely transformative new planetary feminist and anti-racist Social Contract would contain; How we build a positive relationship between not only the citizen and the state, but also the relationship between communities, the individual, the planet, and the accountability of big business to deliver a sustainable future for all and finally what we owe each other to build mutual accountability between peoples, states, businesses, and nature.

The format will be a keynote speech by renowned feminist and author Gita Sen, one of the editors of ‘The Remaking of Social Contracts: Feminists in a Fierce New World’.  This will be followed by a ‘Ted Talk’ style conversation-starters on four different elements of a feminist anti-racist social contract and the second part of the meeting will be further unpacked by moderated conversations with partners and allies.

 There will ‘Ted Talk’ style conversation-starters on four different elements of a feminist anti-racist social contract which will be further unpacked by moderated conversations with partners:

Helen Kezie Nwoha - How is a feminist anti-racist social contract defined in a fragile context? What agency do the marginalized and vulnerable have to engage with the state in relation to a social contract? How does this play out within and among this group?
