CUERPO-TERRITORIO:
ECOFEMINISM AND RESISTANCE IN HONDURAS
JUNE 23-JULY 2, 2023
About the Delegation
This delegation will focus on the interconnectedness of patriarchal violence and U.S. neocolonial extractivism in Honduras. Delegates will hear directly from Indigenous land-based movements and feminist and queer community organizations about their experience and defense of their communities. Artists, Culture workers, and organizers are encouraged to apply. This delegation will center and actively support the participation of 1st generation, Central American diaspora, and BIPOC participants.
Delegation Fee: $1,500
The delegation fee covers all in-country expenses (lodging, travel, meals, interpretation, etc.) along with pre-travel resources, reading lists, and support. The delegation fee also covers our international team’s expenses for delegation preparation and coordination. The delegation fee does not include flight costs.
Sliding Scale: $900-$2,500
Any amount paid over the delegation fee will go towards subsidizing our sliding scale option offered to potential delegates who may not be able to afford the delegation fee. This ensures that the delegation is accessible to everyone. A delegation payment of $2,500 or more is ideal to cover all of your expenses and the broader delegation needs-- please pay this amount if you have institutional support or other financial resources.
