Anti-gender movements, digital repression, and tech-facilitated gender-based violence are on the rise – making it harder and riskier for abortion seekers, storytellers, and defenders to connect. To keep our movements strong and safe, we need more secure, bold, feminist spaces for co-creation and popular education that support and lift up each other’s wisdom.

At inroads, we know that the creation and sharing of information is never neutral. Patriarchy, capitalism, and colonialism shape the technology we use every day. Yet across the globe, advocates continue to create their own feminist tech, online spaces, learning strategies, and ways of creating and resisting together.

We stand alongside our network in the belief that continuing to organize and learn together is essential, more than ever. We are launching this feminist co-creation fellowship with mutual dreams of translating collective insight and experience into network power & stigma-busting tools and resources rooted in mutual care, justice, and access.

For over a decade, inroads has built digital resource libraries, learning tools, and community spaces guided by our feminist principles of learning and co-creation. Now, we invite you to write our network’s next chapter together. Join us to co-create and share the wisdom, strategies, and lived experiences that will fuel a stronger global reproductive justice movement.

Rooted in the feminist principles of autonomous resource generation, mutual learning, and open and free sharing, this fellowship aims to be a communal space for connection building, active mentorship, and accompaniment in creating and assembling pedagogical tools and resources on how abortion stigma, rooted in structures of oppression, is being dismantled across the global inroads network.

The inroads Feminist Co-Creation for Abortion Justice Fellowship invites members to collaboratively design shareable tools and learning resources that challenge abortion stigma at its structural roots.

The introductory module of inroads’ Reproductive Justice and Intersectionality to Dismantle Abortion Stigma online course is the starting point for this fellowship journey. Together we will delve deeper, co-creating learning maps to amplify existing resources and strengthen movement-building across bodies, territories, and histories.

Over six months, fellows will:

This Fellowship is open to inroads members passionate about narrative strategies, liberatory learning, and exploring feminist values grounded in accessibility and education design – particularly those interested in sharing tools, wisdom, and lived experiences of dismantling abortion stigma and intersecting systems of oppression from their own contexts, territories, organizing methods, politics, languages, and more.

The journey is rooted in the belief that we continue to mutually co-create and dream the realities we wish to live in, through our everyday learning, experiences, creation, engagement, and sharing of resources.
