👉 This is not a “polycrisis.” It’s a broken system fuelled by inequality, extractivism, militarism, and corporate capture. At this year’s High-Level Political Forum, the Women’s Major Group is sounding the alarm and setting red lines. 📄Our new Position Paper lays out what must change—and what we will not compromise on. At #HLPF 2025, the Women’s Major Group is holding the line, our demands are bold and non-negotiable: 🔻End extractive & militarised economic models 🔻 Reclaim public control over energy, water & land 🔻 Invest in care systems & grassroots feminist economies 🔻 Guarantee universal, rights-based SRHR & CSE 🔻 Reject tokenism, xenophobia & anti-rights narratives These are more than policy proposals. They are red lines. 📄Read it. Share it. Use it. Send it to your government delegates (or tag them in the comments). 🔗https://lnkd.in/esAfXKYX #FeministsWantSystemChange #HLPF2025 #SRHR #ClimateJustice #FeministEconomics #GenderJustice #GlobalGoals #SystemChangeNotClimateChange #HLPF #RaiseTheRedFlag #HoldingTheLine #SDG5 #SDG3 #SDG8 #SDG14 #SDG17 #WECF Women's Major Group
