Abstract
Latin America and the Caribbean is committed to mainstreaming a gender perspective in foreign policy to promote human rights, international peace and security, climate action, international cooperation and sustainable development. The adoption of a feminist foreign policy offers an opportunity to renew multilateralism and make this commitment a reality. This document sets out criteria for fostering synergies between Germany’s feminist development cooperation policy and the Regional Gender Agenda agreed since 1977 at the meetings of the Regional Conference on Women in Latin America and the Caribbean. It also seeks to contribute to increasing funding and international cooperation, in its various forms, with gender equality as the main objective across the social, economic and environmental dimensions of sustainable development.
