We are observing an increase in countries that are adopting a feminist foreign policy (FFP). Sweden, France and Mexico have launched their FFP programs in 2014, 2019 and 2020, while Canada is bound to announce its FFP strategy this year. At this roundtable KOFF brings together official representatives from these countries, Swiss administration and from civil society organizations to address questions such as: What is a feminist foreign policy? What do these policies entail and how do they relate to the Women, Peace and Security agenda?

June 22, 9.30am-12pm
