Dear friends and allies, As feminists, we can no longer remain active on X (formerly Twitter) due to the platform's alignment with far-right agendas that undermine democracy, human rights, and free speech.

It has become a space for hate speech, disinformation, and the suppression of marginalized voices, directly contradicting our values and undermining the fight for gender and environmental justice. While we will keep our X account open, we will no longer engage on this platform.

"Feminist movements are a powerful antidote to militarism and authoritarianism. They are inclusive, nonhierarchical, optimistic, [and] committed to justice, [which] ... has led many to deploy reactionary gender politics to consolidate power." https://t.co/LZMyDB1jPR

Around the world, feminist activists have successfully combated autocracy — most recently in South Korea. U.S. grant makers concerned about Trump’s strongman tendencies should take note.

🚨#COP29 just adopted the 10-year renewal of the Lima work program on gender. Feminists fought hard amid pushback on equality & rights. A win, but w/o public finance, gender-just climate action remains a dream. Read more: https://t.co/ecOzw3IBgw

And this is why the UN space is so important - not perfect, but at least one-country, one-vote, adds Rodolfo @IbonInternatl - and the right place to reform the international financial architecture. Interrogating assumptions, with a political economy analysis, is hugely important

Quotas are ultimately an issue for the membership, but the institution recognizes the importance of rebalancing it, says Robert Powell of the IMF. Glad we agree on that, says Imene :)

@social_rights @MenaFem @Emilia_Equidad @IbonInternatl We need SDRs, not surcharges, Imene continues, recommending that the IMF decouple SDRs from the quota. This involves talking about power, adds Rodolfo - changing global rules so the global South can advance its development. #AMCSO24

@social_rights @MenaFem @Emilia_Equidad @IbonInternatl Imene Cherif @MENAFem points to IMF quota reform to address its legitimacy crisis, after 80 yrs of undemocratic governance. Current distribution favors advanced economies, while surcharges punish countries without resources, placing additional burdens on countries like Argentina
