Decolonial feminism
Françoise Vergès and Professor Tamar Garb FBA discuss the history of counter revolution against women’s liberation from the 1970s to the 2000s and the forms it concretely took (femonationalism, femi-imperialism in the name of women’s rights) and current forms of decolonial feminism.

Former President of Ireland and United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights Mary Robinson is a towering figure in the international fight against climate change. Speaking as both a human rights advocate and as a grandparent, she joined Professor Albert Weale FBA to discuss our collective responsibility to campaign for climate justice, and the grassroots campaigners driving and delivering change at the highest level.
