#41 Feminist Foreign Policy with Kristina Lunz

We Belong - A podcast by We Belong

Categories:

For the #41 episode of We Belong, we met Kristina Lunz, an entrepreneur, author, and activist. She is the Co-Founder and Co-CEO of the Centre for Feminist Foreign Policy, she was named among the "30 under 30" by Forbes and she was the German face of Giorgio Armani's Female Empowerment campaign "Crossroads" in 2022. Kristina served as an external advisor for the German Foreign Office and UNDP, among others. In her work from New York to Bogotá, from Germany to Myanmar, she became aware of a stubborn unwillingness to think past the status quo and to embrace new, innovative voices from marginalized groups. She also saw that the tradition of feminist activism combined brilliantly with diplomacy: both require grim tenacity, boundless creativity and a solutions-oriented approach. In conversation with Kristina, we discussed her bestseller "The Future of Foreign Policy is Feminist" that promotes an inclusive, visionary policy where genders are equally represented.
