September 2022
This brief was produced by the German Institute for Development Evaluation and explores German attitudes toward feminist development policy.
Key Findings:
- In September 2022, the term “feminist development
policy” had already become better known among the
German population than the United Nations’ 17
Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). - There are reservations towards feminist development
policy. In comparison to other possible thematic
priorities in development policy (such as development
policy based on human rights or peace promotion), it
receives the most negative average rating. - From the viewpoint of the general public, the most
compelling reasons for a feminist development policy
are those that place an emphasis on equal rights for
everyone.
