El Instituto para las Mujeres en la Migración, A.C. (“Institute for Women in Mi- gration” or “IMUMI”) is a Mexican NGO that advocates for women migrants and their families within the region of Mexico, the U.S., and Central America. IMUMI addresses issues important to migrant women through legal strategies, research, communication, and advocacy. IMUMI collaborates with other civil society organi- zations, academic institutions, and governments to advocate for gender-specific mi- gration and human rights policies. Haitian Bridge Alliance (“HBA”) is a nonprofit community organization that advo- cates for fair and humane immigration policies and connects migrants with human- itarian, legal, and social services, with a particular focus on Black migrants, the Hai- tian community, women, LGBTQIA+ individuals, and survivors of torture and other human rights abuses. Since 2015, HBA has provided services to asylum seekers and other migrants at the U.S.-Mexico border, in U.S. detention, and during U.S. immigra- tion proceedings. As HBA Co-Founder and Executive Director Guerline Jozef says, “We went to the U.S.-Mexico border to help our Haitian brothers and sisters, but we saw Africans and Central Americans in need as well. We stayed for everyone else.” The Center for Gender & Refugee Studies (“CGRS”), based at the University of California Hastings College of the Law, protects the fundamental human rights of refugee women, children, LGBTQ individuals and others who flee persecution in their home countries. The Center’s core programs include training and technical as- sistance, litigation, and policy and advocacy. Since its founding in 1999, CGRS has participated in UC Hastings initiatives advancing human rights and the rule of law in Haiti through academic exchange, human rights fact-finding, and other advocacy.

    Chamula: A small indigenous village in Chiapas StateState ofof Chiapas,Chiapas, MexicoMexico ChamulaChamula This is a community of Pre-Hispanic origin whose name means "Thick "Water." The Chamulas have always been fiercely independent: they resisted the Spanish upon their arrival in 1524 and later staged a famous rebellion in 1869, attacking the nearby colonial settlement of San Cristobal. San Juan Chamula is the principal town, being the main religious and economic center of the community. The Chamulas enjoy being a closed community. Like other indigenous communities in this region, they can be identified by their clothes: in this case distinctive purple and pink colors predominate. This Tzotzil community is considered one of most important of its kind, not only by sheer numbers of population, but by customs practices here, as well.

  • Learning from Feed the Future Programs About Gender Integration and Women's Empowerment
    Learning from Feed the Future Programs about Gender Integration and Women’s Empowerment COMPILED CASE SUBMISSIONS APRIL 2016 Learning from Feed the Future Programs about Gender Integration and Women’s Empowerment Compiled Case Submissions April 2016 The case studies in the following pages were solicited from Feed the Future partners through a Call for Cases about Feed the Future Learning on Gender Integration and Women’s Empowerment, released in April 2016.1 Feed the Future partners submitted twenty cases spanning ten different countries. The cases were ranked and chosen according to the quality of the data, the compelling nature of the story, demonstration of learning, and diversity of representation in terms of geography and type of intervention. While the majority of information in the Cultivating Women’s Empowerment: Stories from Feed the Future 2011-2015 came from these twenty cases, it was not possible to include everything. In the spirit of learning and transparency, all of the original case submissions are compiled here and are available for download on USAID’s Agrilinks website. They are a complimentary piece to the publication and showcase the broader set of activities happening around gender integration and women’s empowerment in Feed the Future programs. The cases are organized alphabetically by region and by country. 1 See the Call for Cases here: https://agrilinks.org/blog/call-cases-feed-future-programs-learning- gender-integration-and-women%E2%80%99s-empowerment.
