Red Thread’s advocacy focuses on three issues

LIVING INCOME

VIOLENCE

POLITICAL VOICE


HOW WE ENGAGE

Advocating for women’s income in unwaged or low-waged work

Combating violence through activism and crisis intervention

Procuring and providing workshops, resources and tools

Building regional and transnational solidarity for greater equality


Take a look at our current and past initiatives


“Red Thread has always been a place where women can access social networks, practical help, and analytical skills, providing the opportunity for reflection, analysis, and assessment of what has been taken for granted…It has always had intersectionality at its heart and it is still the only women’s organization in the country that sets itself the goal of working with women across racialized, classed, and geographical divides.”

Linda Peake & Karen de Souza in “Feminist Academic and Activist Praxis in Service of the Transnational” (2010, p. 108)
