The second international women's conference organized by the Network Women Weaving the Future is called "Our Revolution: Building Free Life" and will be held in Berlin on 5 and 6 November.

The organizers presented the conference and said: 

"The past few years have once again shown us the importance of resistance and struggle against the systems that impose exploitation, misery, and death on us. As we have seen during the Covid-19 pandemic, with the help of the state, the patriarchal and capitalist system deepens its methods to deprive women, peoples, workers, farmers, and laborers of their right to live. Today, everywhere, we are confronted with war, occupation, violence, with feminicide,  genocide, and ecocide.

Although capitalist patriarchy claims that ‘there is no alternative’ to this world of exploitation and injustice, this system is losing its legitimacy. To overcome its latest crisis, the system continuously re-employs its fundamental pillars of fascism, nationalism, religionism, scientism, sexism, and feudalism, which leads to a state of war against society, women, and environment. Yet, we, those who struggle, know there are millions of us in every corner of the world, determined to build a different, more just world.

We know there are paths beyond the ones that are presented to us as alternatives. As the revolution in Rojava/North and East Syria has shown us for the past decade - it is possible to struggle and build a different political and societal system, based on women’s autonomy in all spheres of life. The struggles of our sisters from places like Afghanistan, Iran, Sudan, the Philippines, Brazil, and the US show us that this century has the potential of being the century of women’s and peoples’ freedom. It can be the era of carrying our struggles from the local to the universal."

The organizers added that "since our first conference in 2018, we have been weaving the future to create World Democratic Women’s Confederalism. Our claim is big, but wherever we touched base, we have seen that this claim can become reality. We have also seen that we can master a long road only through continuous organization. We must continue to share experiences and prepare for the patriarchal system’s new attacks on our body’s, freedoms, and minds. We must create paths, methods and perspectives that can match the conditions, qualities and needs of our age. Against the constant attacks of the patriarchal system, we must weave a durable network of resistance and become active subjects of the most urgent struggles of our age.

At our second conference, we want to pave the way for this road. From the content to the agenda, from the technicalities to the participants, we wanted to see all of the preparations for our second conference to happen in the spirit of women's collectivism and solidarity.
