As a part of its 40th anniversary celebrations, DAWN is announcing a new fellowship programme for young women feminists from the Global South. The fellowship focuses on The Political Economy of Gender-Based Violence and Conflict, supporting a younger woman feminist with proven commitment to women’s rights and gender justice to develop projects that deepen understanding of how gender-based violence and conflict shape gender dynamics, amplifying women’s feminist voices in public discourse.
We aim to support young women feminists from the Global South in undertaking innovative projects focusing on research, advocacy, mobilisation, resistance, or creative expression and provide a platform to share their work with diverse audiences locally and internationally.
Eligibility Criteria
- Applicants must be women feminists under the age of 40.
- Applicants should be from the Global South.
- Applicants must demonstrate a commitment to feminist principles and methodologies.
- Proposals can include research, advocacy, mobilisation, resistance, or creative expression.
- Proposals must align with the theme of The Political Economy of Gender-Based Violence and Conflict.
We’re especially encouraging projects that focus on Palestine, while also welcoming proposals addressing other areas of conflicts.
