In this podcast, discover more about how women’s movements mobilize for policy change on the key areas of violence against women, land rights, domestic workers’ labour rights and unpaid care work. What are the effective strategies women advocates use to influence policy change? How do different women’s groups reach a consensus and build alliances? Why do certain claims remain on the margins? When do states respond to women’s claims? Based on finding from the UNRISD research project When and Why Do States Respond to Women’s Claims? Understanding Gender-Egalitarian Policy Change in Asia, Nitya Rao, external project coordinator, will discuss the conditions and factors that allow women’s movements to successfully trigger policy change and participate in negotiation processes behind such change.
