Agreement Number:

Agreement Value:
$880,000.00
Agreement Date:
Feb 1, 2019 - Jan 31, 2022
Description:
This 36-month project will develop a new, contemporary five-year feminist strategic litigation plan (FSL plan) that will enable feminists and gender equality advocates to address systemic gender discrimination more effectively. To do so, it will start by assessing the effectiveness of LEAF’s own past feminist strategic litigation over the last thirty operational years. It will undertake a needs assessment with feminist groups and other key stakeholders to identify intersectional gender equality issues that can be effectively addressed through feminist strategic litigation. The results of both assessments will be used to inform the development of the new 5-year FSL Plan which will be pilot tested with three test cases and broadly disseminated.
