W7 – After the Summit: What have we achieved?
W7 stands for Women 7 and is a global alliance of NGOs working for more gender justice at the G7. The Women 7 works every year in parallel with the G7. And because Germany holds the G7’s presidency for 2022, the Women 7 was organized this year by the National Council of German Women’s Organizations.
For one year, 64 activists* from 24 countries considered the question: what must policymakers do to ensure greater gender justice worldwide? They then condensed their demands onto two pages before handing it over to this year's G7 President, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, who accepted it on behalf of the heads of all the G7 countries. The question then is, did the G7 listen? And, if so, what did the W7 achieve with its work?
A podcast with:
• Caroline Ausserer, W7 Project Coordinator at the National Council of German Women’s Organizations
• Khanyo Farisé, Outright Action International
- Spogmay Ahmed, International Center for Research on Women and a W7 Advisor on Feminist Foreign Policy
• Miwo Atsuko, executive director of the Human Rights Information Center in Osaka, Japan, and a W7 Advisor on gender-equal responses to the covid pandemic
