On Sunday, September 17, 2023, Chrysoula Zacharopoulou, Secretary of State for Development, announced at the Generation Equality Forum the implementation of a five-year plan to allocate 250 million euros in support of feminist organizations.
C’est à New York, au Forum Génération Egalité, organisé par l’ONU, dans le cadre de la journée consacrée aux Objectifs de développement durable adoptés par les Etats membre de l’ONU en 2015, que la secrétaire d’Etat au développement a fait son annonce.
250 millions d’euros sur cinq ans
Le doublement des financements en faveur des organisations féministes à hauteur de 250 millions d’euros sera effectif sur cinq ans. Ce financement a pour but de contrer les reculs des droits des femmes, mais aussi de soutenir toutes les femmes subissant des injustices.
According to TF1info, in 2021, the forum made strong commitments, as reported by the Secretary of State. « We must uphold them. We owe it to Iranian women, Afghan women, and all women who suffer injustice and violence worldwide, » she stated.
According to our colleagues, over the past three years, the government has granted a fund of 134 million euros to support 1,000 associations in 75 countries. The Secretary of State proudly states that « France is the leading funder of feminist associations. »
Chrysoula Zacharopoulou a aussi appelé les Etats à prendre de nouveaux engagements et à mettre les femmes au centre rapporte TF1info.
