How ooia supports female empowerment
Female empowerment is ooia's central mission. Our product contributes to this mission by enabling many* to deal with their period more contentedly. But we want to achieve more and therefore support various initiatives that promote equality and female empowerment.
Cooperation with the
Center for Feminist Foreign PolicyThe Centre for Feminist Foreign Policy is a non-profit organisation (gGmbH) and advocates a feminist foreign policy that questions the conventional standards of international politics. Feminist foreign policy means using all diplomatic and foreign policy tools to reduce systemic injustices and to focus on human security. This is the only way to achieve sustainable peace - instead of focusing on military strength and national security. Without feminism, there can be no peace. ooia supports the CFFP as a visionary with an annual donation. Here you can find out more about the CFFP and its two founders , Kristina Lunz and Marissa Conway .
Cooperation with the
Center for Intersectional JusticeThe non-profit organization Center for Intersectional Justice (CIJ) from Berlin is committed to combating structural inequality and discrimination in Europe. ooia supports the CIJ with regular campaigns - for example, on November 26, 2021, we donated 25% of our daily profits to the CIJ. If you would like to find out more about the CIJ and our cooperation, check out our interview with the founder Emilia Zenzile Roig on Instagram.
