Despite progress since the 4th International Women’s Conference in Beijing 1995, critical challenges persist to the achievement of gender and wider social justice. These include, amongst others, persistent gender-differentiated inequalities in political participation, health, education, sexuality, violence, employment and livelihoods, especially in the context of a changing climate. The aims of this conference are twofold: to reflect on the current state of the art in Gender and Development debates, and to foster feminist solidarities and collective action within a changing global context. This 2025 conference on “Debates for a Changing World” is the third in a series of DEV conferences to recognise feminist landmark events: DEV previously organised a conference in 1994, in the run-up to Beijing 1995, to explore feminist visions of gender and development, and another conference in 2015 to take stock of gender relations in the context of rising inequalities.
