Development Alternatives with Women for a New Era (DAWN) is a network of feminist researchers and activists from the Global South, dedicated to promoting economic and gender justice, as well as sustainable and democratic development. Established in 1984, DAWN has become a pivotal platform for research, analysis, advocacy, mobilization, and training on global issues affecting women’s lives, human rights, and development opportunities in the South. DAWN challenges inequitable social, economic, and political structures while advancing feminist alternatives. 

DAWN is announcing a new fellowship programme for young women feminists from the Global South. The fellowship focuses on The Political Economy of Gender-Based Violence and Conflict, supporting a younger woman feminist with a proven commitment to women’s rights and gender justice. The fellow will develop a project that deepens understanding of how gender-based violence and conflict shape gender dynamics, amplifying women’s feminist voices in public discourse. 

The inaugural fellowship will prioritize projects focusing on Palestine, but applications addressing other conflict-affected areas are welcome to apply.
