Feminist Foreign Policy: why is it feminist?

Feminist Foreign Policy seeks to incorporate a gender and human rights perspective into international foreign affairs and policy. This episode discusses what feminist foreign policy looks like in different countries, its challenges, and how it may look in the future. Our staff editor, Paola interviews Daniela Philipson, Peace and Security Ph.D. Scholar at Monash University. She has authored several Op-Eds and articles for international outlets, such as the Yale Journal of International Affairs and Chatham House. In 2022, Daniela co-founded Internacional Feminista, a multilingual platform to advance critical dialogues on foreign policy, international relations, and feminism in Latin America.
