# Feminist Foreign Policy Index: A Qualitative Evaluation of Feminist Commitments

Foteini Papagioti
The Feminist Foreign Policy Index (FFP Index) is a new tool developed to assess countries’ progress toward a  approach. The Index evaluates 48 OECD member countries on seven key priority areas, including peace and militarization, gender equality, institutional commitments, climate, and others, through 27 indicators. The Index is not intended to be a critique of existing FFP frameworks but rather serves as an accountability mechanism and cross-country comparison tool. The FFP Index scores countries from 0 (weak integration of feminist commitments) to 1 (strong integration of feminist commitments).
Sweden tops the list with the most integrated FFP approach, while European and Latin American countries dominate the top 10 spots. The FFP Index aims to incentivize change and offer a template for countries to prioritize when developing or revising their FFP frameworks. The authors hope that the FFP Index will encourage deeper reflection and bolder action in governments that already apply a feminist lens to their foreign policies, as well as present those considering an FFP with an array of policy options to incorporate into their frameworks. The Index is a timely contribution to the growing movement toward feminist policymaking and gender equality.

# From Barriers to Breakthroughs: Women’s Leadership Journeys in Indian Healthcare Organizations
, , ,

Radhika Uppal, Ravi Verma, Sapna Kedia, Shabih Anwer
Gender equitable leadership, a key principle of rights-based gender justice for women in the workforce, arises from equitable career structures and opportunities. Globally, health sectors are characterized by an under-representation of women in leadership positions. Based on research conducted with 19 organizations and 55 study participants in India, this report on *Women in Leadership* seeks to expand the evidence base for advancing women’s leadership and influence in health sector organizations in India. The report examines the career pipeline for women in the health sector, assesses the unique enablers and barriers women face in accessing equal opportunities for career growth, and provides recommendations to support women in participating equally in the health workforce and advancing to leadership positions.
The research reported in this publication has been conducted as part of a study undertaken by ICRW, *Women in Leadership in Health Sector*, and supported by GH5050. The facts and information in this report may be reproduced/quoted/cited only for non-commercial use and with appropriate attribution.
