Foxy, those mugs are only 17 seats in Holyrood, and all the other parties see them for what they are.

TEXT: #EMPTYCHAIRS CAMPAIGN @AWID Forum What’s a feminist like you doing in a place like this? A conversation on global governance 4 December 2024 14:30 - 15:45 ICT Room: TBC Hybrid modalities will be available for this event https://www.emptychairscampaign.org/ photo: al-Haq Logos: AWID, emptuchairs campaign, SRI What’s a feminist like you doing in a place like this? A conversation on global governance This session aims to discuss the multiple crises of multilateralism and possibilities for collective mobilisation and systemic change, with insights from feminists who engage within the system itself. The ability of the international human rights system - and in particular, the multilateral institutions tasked with advancing human rights for all - has long been questioned by feminist and social justice activists. History is littered with examples of tragic failures - from Rwanda in 1994 to Palestine now - the UN has consistently failed to prevent and end genocides. An ecosystem captured by rich Northern states and corporations prioritises elite interests. The system sidelines what it can’t capture or coopt from civil society. An example of this is the system’s favouring rights related to gender and sexuality over rights related to development and the economy. This conversation will bring together people working in varied multilateral spaces and analyse the similarities and differences of dynamics within the WTO, the UN HRC, and CSW, among others. The conversation will also address the way feminist and queer analysis needs to confront cooption in the multilateral system. It will explore the spaces and their entry points, the sites of resistance and the potential for organising for systemic change. Join us for this exciting conversation, which will interrogate where collective advocacy should be headed and the possibilities for feminist collective action and mobilisation.

A conversation on global governance AWID FORUM 2024 Because we've been mobilising around the agreed language that is in those UN spaces, we mobilise around the need to hold the line. A line that is invisible to the realities of people, a line that is a line of words, literally, on a document. We focus so much on that language, on that line. And we sometimes miss out on the bigger things that are actually making us be there. Logos: AWID, #EmptyChairsCampaign, SRI

Throwback: Don McLean - Music Legend / American Icon (American Pie)
Hey Streetwalkers. This is a throwback episode with American music icon Don McLean. Don's first appearance on the show was 8.13.21 It was such a compelling & fun episode, l decided it needed to be re-visited! Enjoy this throwback episode, tell a friend, and thanks for listening! Don McLean Take a walk with me down Fascination Street as I get to know Don McLean. Legendary singer / songwriter; Don is most known for his super smash hit AMERICAN PIE, which was released FIFTY YEARS AGO this year! In this episode, Don and I chat about: some of his songs, his new and upcoming projects, including: a new album of originals, a new album of covers, a new documentary, a play, a movie, and a new children's book called "American Pie: A Fable" which drops in October. Then he tells us about the true story behind the hit song "Killing Me Softly"; which is not his song, but has a very interesting connection that I bet you didn't know about. Don was kind enough to let me play some of his classic songs during this episode, as well as one of the covers off of his new album of covers called "Still Playin Favorites". Be sure to check out his website for upcoming tour dates (covid permitting). Don McLean is a legend, a brilliant poet and songwriter; but more importantly, he was a super king and generous to me! Enjoy this conversation with a LEGEND. Follow Don on social media: Twit: @DonMcLean Insta: @TheDonMcLean FB: Don McLean (Musician) Website: DonMcLean.com

Last Friday, we made a statement at #HRC58 on behalf of the #EmptyChairs campaign in collaboration with @ishr.ch , @ilgaworld.bsky.social and @fidh-official.bsky.social to the General Debate on Item 5.

Read and listen to the statement here: www.sexualrightsinitiative.org/news/2025-ma...

TEXT: States cannot continue defunding the Special Procedures system, which they have created, thereby preventing them from fulfilling their essential mandates. We reiterate our request to reinstate remote participation for future annual meetings and throughout the work of Special Procedures. HRC 58: #EmptyChairs campaign Statement to the General Debate on Item 5 IMAGE: an orange background with a yellow geometric shape TEXT: Those who wish to engage should be able to do so remotely, including through video statements, with interpretation in UN languages, and accessibility measures such as sign language interpretation and closed captioning. Inclusive participation of diverse civil society, particularly those in the Global South and from underrepresented and marginalized groups, cannot be an afterthought.
