Conferences

The Network Women Weaving the Future began with the joint organization of two historic international women’s conferences.

The first conference, “Revolution in the Making,” took place in October 2018 in Frankfurt, Germany. The speeches and discussions from the conference were later compiled in a book, which you can access and download here.

In November 2022, the Network organized its second two-day International Women’s Conference, “Our Revolution: Liberating Life,” in Berlin, Germany.

Each conference brought together more than 500, with an estimated 700 participants, mainly representatives of different struggles, movements, and organizations from countries and territories around the world. Together, through panels and workshops, they discussed topics ranging from patriarchal and state violence, war, forced migration, and economic exploitation to health, education, language, fascism, neo-colonialism, ecocide, knowledge, art, culture, and self-defense.

The conferences were hosted, in particular, by local Kurdish women’s assemblies. Autonomous women’s media organizations documented these historic encounters, while dozens of internationalist volunteer translators provided simultaneous interpretation in seven languages.

These events were deeply meaningful, offering a glimpse of what becomes possible when we come together despite our differences and join forces. They laid the foundation for a growing network of women committed to weaving a different future through collective struggle, solidarity, and shared knowledge.

In February 2026, we will hold a regional conference in Abya Yala, continuing this process of encounter, exchange, and collective organizing.
