2014
DAWN launches Breaking Through the Development Silos: Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights, Millennium Development Goals and Gender Equity, a collection of case studies designed to provide robust evidence for global advocacy on SRHR and gender equality in the context of the Cairo+20 and MDG+15 review processes. The research highlights the phenomenon of “siloization,” exposing how critical social and human-rights issues are often fragmented and excluded from broader poverty and development agendas.
That same year, DAWN publishes The Remaking of Social Contracts: Feminists in a Fierce New World (ZED Books, London), a major reflection on feminist strategies in a rapidly changing global landscape. Building on decades of analysis, including Development, Crises and Alternative Visions: Third World Women’s Perspectives, the book draws on debates with social movement partners and allies to chart transformative approaches to social, economic, and political justice. In 2015, the Spanish edition is released and launched in Uruguay, extending DAWN’s influence and dialogue across Latin America.
Key DAWN members – Gita Sen, Sonia Correa, Carmen Barroso – contribute to a special issue of Global Public Health in 2014 (ICPD both before and beyond 2014: the challenges of population and development in the 21st century).
