West Nordic Feminist Network
The project aims to create a sustainable network of West Nordic feminist activists who will become a powerful voice in the Nordic feminist movement and future feminist cooperation. The project will bring together key activists and groups from Greenland, the Faroe Islands, Denmark and Iceland in a closed seminar and open conference, to be held at the Talk Town festival in Copenhagen in May 2023, an annual festival on gender, equality and feminism. The conference will be open to activists from all Nordic countries, but will be aimed at activists from the West Nordic Region and guests from those countries will be especially invited.
The goal is to support existing NGO’s and groups of activists already operating in Greenland and the Faroe Islands and to spur the creation of new groups at the grassroots level. During the conference, a website on gender equality and feminism in the West Nordic region will be published, creating a sustainable platform for future cooperation and material sharing.
