This March 8, 2025, women around the world hit the streets to demonstrate the strength of grassroots feminism. It’s the start of the 6th International Action of the World March of Women. Also on this date, we are publishing a gallery with 14 posters produced by women and collectives from seven different countries in solidarity with the people of Western Sahara. The Sahrawi people resists the occupation of their territory by Morocco and firmly struggles for sovereignty.
Raised fists, feminist collectivity, and the Sahrawi flag are some of the common elements among the posters, depicting the strength of Sahrawi women who resist and defend their territories, sovereignty, and ways of living. The posters were submitted by people from Argentina, Brazil, India, Peru, Philippines, Switzerland, Venezuela, and Zimbabwe.
The posters are part of the expressions of international solidarity called for by the World March of Women (WMW) for its 6th International Action, which starts on March 8th, 2025, with a public opening ceremony in the Sahrawi refugee camps in Tindouf, Algeria. The end of the occupations in Western Sahara and Palestine is at the center of this action, with the slogan “We march against wars and capitalism, defending the peoples’ sovereignty and good living.”
“While Sahrawi women have to live under extremely difficult conditions, they are struggling for independence and for the Sahrawi people’s right to self-determination on the one hand, and, on the other, they are establishing the democratic society of the future,” a WMW statement reads. With grassroots organization, international solidarity, and militant art, we fight wars and imperialism and demand sovereignty for the peoples!
