When institutions are dismantled or weaponised by conflict, defining justice and demanding accountability often falls to women navigating these realities.

International Womenโ€™s Day global commitments to gender equality for women living under siege, occupation, genocide, and protracted militarisation, unfold within displacement, economic devastation, weakened justice systems, and fragmented accountability.

Como nos recuerda Gita Sen, cofundadora de DAWN y economista feminista: โ€œLas normas patriarcales que alguna vez parecรญan inmutables han sido -y siguen siendo- derrocadas por nosotras, incluso en las circunstancias mรกs adversasโ€.

ยกPensemos en lo lejos que hemos llegado!

Y, sin embargo, incluso frente al desplazamiento masivo y la devastaciรณn econรณmica, las mujeres estรกn resistiendo, reconstruyendo y definiendo la justicia en sus propios tรฉrminos.

Las mujeres en zonas de conflicto no estรกn piden permiso para existir. En estas condiciones defienden la vida misma.

Cuando las narrativas dominantes miran el conflicto, a menudo solo ven fronteras, geopolรญtica y armas. Pero una mirada de economรญa polรญtica feminista desde el Sur Global revela una realidad distinta: la destrucciรณn deliberada de las infraestructuras de la vida y las redes de cuidado

Today, we honour the radical agency of feminists across the global South who continue to build life, community, and alternatives where structural violence seeks to impose erasure and collapse.

Our fight is our hope!

As DAWN founding member and feminist economist Gita Sen reminds us: "Patriarchal norms that once seemed unchangeable have beenโ€”and continue to beโ€”overturned by us, even in the most adverse circumstances."

Think how far we have come.

And yet, even in the face of mass displacement and economic devastation, women are resisting, rebuilding, and defining justice on their own terms. Women in conflict zones are not waiting for permission to exist. Within these conditions, they defend life itself and build alternatives.

When dominant narratives look at conflict, they often see only borders, geopolitics, and weapons. But a feminist political economy lens from the global South reveals a different reality: the deliberate destruction of the infrastructures of life and survival that women sustain every day.

Across Palestine, Sudan, Sri Lanka, and Yemen, protracted conflict has dismantled civilian infrastructure and weakened justice systems.

This panel centres the gendered impacts of conflict and reflects on access to justice within these conditions.

This is not a conversation about abstract policy commitments. It is about collapsed infrastructures, politicised justice systems, and women redefining survival and accountability in real time.

In global financial capitalism, survival is tied to debt โ€” especially for vulnerable women. Whatโ€™s framed as โ€œfinancial inclusionโ€ often turns rights-holders into debt-holders.

The #CESCR questioned Australia on the rights of Pacific peoples and remedies amid #AUKUS risks. The reply? Procedural assurances and a pivot to climate change.

Australia must do more than proclaim; it must prevent, consult, and remedy.

On 17 Feb, during Australiaโ€™s review before #CESCR, Rapporteur Dr Seree Nonthasoot raised #humanrights concerns over AUKUS, questioning nuclear risks, safeguards and remedies under the International Covenant.

Australia offered no substantive answers. The Pacific is still waiting.

Under the ICESCR, Australia has binding obligations to prevent foreseeable harms:. Yet no human rights impact assessment has been conducted & communities haven't been consulted.

Today, we're monitoring the review closely. Stay tuned
