General question: Results related to the intended outcome 2016Question: Summarise results related to the intended outcome (this information will be sent to Open Aid)Answer: Asia Pacific Forum for Women, Law, and Development (APWLD) achieved outcomes as planned in 2016. The capacity of women activists, young women researchers and communities were developed through the Feminist Participatory Action Research (FPAR) projects. Its members and partners have utilized laws as an instrument for change, participating in decision making and holding governments accountable, and mobilizing feminist movements around global and regional development policies. APWLD built the capacity of over 400 feminist advocates, particularly grassroots and marginalised women, from 25 countries in Asia Pacific to analyse, organise, and drive social, economic and political change. APWLD resourced and supported over 40 grassroots feminist women’s rights activists from 10 countries to engage in nine high-level advocacy spaces. It built institutional solidarity for feminist Development Justice and Climate Justice, through their active participation in the Women and Gender Constituency of the UNFCCC; their leadership in the Asia Pacific Regional Civil Society Engagement Mechanism (AP RCEM) where there is a unified call for Development Justice, and the increased space for women workers and their priorities within the broader trade union movement. APWLD was able to create space for grassroots women to influence regional coalitions for Agenda 2030. 32 of 122 CSOs at the 3rd Civil Society Forum on Sustainable Development were APWLD members; and their members lead four of 17 constituency groups in the AP RCEM. In addition, APWLD is one of key organizations organising the inaugural Pacific Feminist Forum. During 28-30 November 2016, first ever gathering of its kind, APWLD convened over 130 women’s rights defenders, feminists and women from multifarious backgrounds across 13 Pacific countries and territories. The Forum was covered extensively in the media across television, radio and print; created the Charter of Pacific Feminist Principles; and continue to influence other network spaces in the region such as the Pacific CSO Organising Mechanism. Their membership has been growing, with the addition of 11 new members (including two trade unions) from eight countries. In 2016, APWLD received grants and other income totaling USD 1,230,067.97 and Sweden accounted for 35% of a total amount for a core fund.
