This dossier features the stories of resistance and young feminists’ perceptions of the world. It emphasises the resilient nature of the people who are making choices that do not conform to laws or customs - or whose views have long been disregarded.

The Anne Klein Women's Prize 2025 goes to three Belarusian feminists. The women's and human rights defender Irina Alkhovka, the feminist blogger Darya Afanasyeva and the feminist activist and politician Julia Mickiewicz - they are all targets of state persecution and repression and are currently forced to continue their work from exile in Europe.

The Global Feminist Pitch supports young feminists from Latin America, the Caribbean, Asia, Africa, Middle East and (South)East Europe in making feminists and feminist movements worldwide visible through different formats.

The Anne Klein Women's Award 2023 goes to the Syrian lawyer and women's and human rights activist Joumana Seif, who has spent the past decade in forced exile in Berlin.

With this page we want to create a contribution to the introduction to the topic of identity politics. What does the term actually mean, What is currently being discussed and where we want to head as a society?
