Collective Care Collaborative Advocacy Tool
— Over the past two years, a collective of women’s funds has steered
a comprehensive research and strategy process in order to
strengthen the role that women’s funds play in advocating for and
resourcing collective care in the feminist movement ecosystem.
Collaboratively led by Doria Feminist Fund, Mongolian Women’s
Fund, TEWA, Women’s Fund Fiji, and FRIDA Young Feminist Fund,
this process has offered a unique opportunity for women’s funds to
engage in deeper discussions around the need for dedicated
collective care resources, and unite in collective action to advocate
within philanthropic spaces to prioritise collective care as a key
element of supporting activists’ growth, sustainability, and
resilience.
The Collective Care Collaborative is inviting the philanthropic
community to embark on deep reflection on collective care within
feminist funding practices, and grantee partner communities. The
Collaborative offers this advocacy strategy as a tool for
strengthening collective care systems within women’s funds,
defining accountability mechanisms, and highlighting pathways for
advocating for increased resources for collective care for grantee
partners.
