International Alliance for Sexual and Reproductive Health, Rights and Justice

About us

FÒS FEMINISTA Canada is an affiliate of Fòs Feminista - an international alliance of 250 sexual and reproductive health rights and justice organizations in 42 countries. The Fòs Feminista alliance builds on more than 70 years of experience and unites diverse ecosystem partners - local health care providers, community-based caregivers, rights-based educators, young leaders and grassroots activists - and harmonizes their multifaceted work towards a shared goal of ensuring that all women, girls, and gender-diverse people have the resources, power, and safety to exercise the spectrum of their sexual and reproductive health and rights. We strategically infuse capital where it is most needed across the Alliance, and enable the network of relationships across the ecosystem to flourish by connecting, coordinating and strengthening across actors. By working as a collective, our work bridges service delivery and advocacy, promoting improved policies and programs while also meeting the immediate health needs of marginalized groups through clinics, digital health, community-based models, and self-care. Our interventions act as a lever, amplifying the collective impact and lifting the entire movement.

    🔍 A coordinated attack on global #health. From reinstating the #GlobalGagRule to halting critical health aid, recent decisions from the U.S. government threaten decades of progress in sexual and reproductive health, HIV prevention, and medical research worldwide. The impact is already being felt—clinics closing, health workers losing jobs, and communities left without essential care. 📢 Now is not the time for silence. The health and scientific communities must push back, defend human rights, and demand accountability.

    Sexual and gender-based violence affects us all. The frequent lack of safety experienced by girls, women, and gender-diverse people resonates far beyond their immediate circle. Ending systemic and personal violence begins with recognizing the interconnected nature of your life to theirs. Feminist Futures Free from Violence implements evidence-based initiatives to inspire tangible changes at the individual, family, and community levels. As implementing partners we are inspired by the possibility of creating a safer and more just world for all. We know positive change is possible! 🫱🏾🫲🏽 🌈

    🌍 Over 100 organizations stand united against the #GlobalGagRule. For 40 years, this policy has disproportionately harmed communities in the Global South—leading to unintended pregnancies, unsafe abortions, preventable deaths, and weakened health systems. As a Global South-led alliance, we stand in solidarity with those impacted and call for a permanent end to this deadly policy. Advancing global health, human rights, and gender equality starts with dismantling harmful barriers like the Global Gag Rule. It’s time for change, driven by the voices of those most affected. Together, we call for urgent action to end this policy once and for all and to advance health, human rights, and gender equality across the globe. 🔗 Read the full statement and join the movement: bit.ly/3DYUKtf

    AI Think Men Can't Clean Toilets 🤔 🤖 Generative #AI is shaping the future of creativity and technology. But what happens when gender biases get baked into the system? 🔎 Dr. Samantha Pillay’s experiment with AI image generators, featured in an article by The Female Lead, revealed how societal biases are reflected in tech, showing that men cleaning toilets seemed unrealistic, while women appeared more natural. It’s a reminder that the AI we create often mirrors the world we live in. 💡 To build a more inclusive and equal future, we need to start by transforming society itself.

    Big Tech shouldn’t punish women for seeking abortions❗ Big tech companies hold immense power, shaping the flow of information and influencing the choices we make. But when it comes to reproductive rights, this power is being used to suppress critical abortion-related information, putting women and those seeking support at risk by silencing life-saving resources. 🤯 And what's even more concerning? With the re-election of President Donald Trump, things may only get worse. Learn more about the current situation and what we can expect here: https://bit.ly/40ZAwIU
