It starts on 2019, Following a reflective process by the technical team at the time, and after welcoming criticism that came from the organisations with which we collaborate as a result of a study on the situation of the movement of migrant and racialised women in the Spanish state which revealed practices that could be described as colonial and that made it possible to awaken our desire to look at ourselves, recognise those traits and think about how to work on them. This is where Calala's bid to introduce a decolonial perspective into the organisation begins.
For the 2020 we carry out a diagnosis by a fellow migrant woman who is part of the women's movements of community feminism and who focused on 5 axes of analysis: the political will of the management, the composition and structure of the organisation, the technical competencies of the team, the organisational culture and the monitoring mechanisms. that we would have to equip ourselves with. Ironically, during this same period, a racist aggression between peers takes place inside Calala, which leads to the aggressor's departure. This situation invites us to think about the importance and significance of the process we were already embarked on.
The year 2021 The result of that diagnosis gave us the first photo, which turned out to be a picture we had not expected and which showed us how much there was to work on. It was at that moment that we decided to approve what we lovingly call Plan Alebrije, an action plan that would help us move towards becoming an anti-racist organisation. in which we let ourselves be accompanied by collaborators who would be an ideal accompaniment, Plaza de Los Pueblos.
The 2022 we defined that one of the priorities of the Plan was to creating a protocol to address racist violence, This year, therefore, the work to this end will be intensified, thus obtaining the first draft. Workshops are also held specially designed for the organisation that further deepen our process.
The year 2023 emphasis is placed on the work of the Care area of the organisation and the our commitment to decoloniality is ratified publicly pronouncing that decoloniality is part of our values and that it is inscribed as such in our Theory of change and that this value is therefore transversal in our work as a Women's Fund. On the other hand, the Assembly People's Square, our partners in Plan Alebrije, advise us on the mainstreaming of the Decolonial and Anti-racist perspective in Calala's internal policies, We have to ensure that our relationship, whether with partners, funders, suppliers, donors or the public administration itself, does not fall outside of an anti-racist and decolonial approach.
During the 2024, we present to the community our Racist Violence Protocol which aims to addressing violence generated by coloniality, as an ongoing process of imposing an unequal order between some people and others, which seeks to prevent, manage, heal and offer elements to redress situations of injustice based on the idea of race. We know that the journey is long, and not without its difficulties, but we are not going slowly because We want to go far!
This guide was created to accompany you if you decide to report a situation of racism. in the context of Calala. It is part of our Protocol against racism, a collective tool designed to preventing, addressing and healing racist situations that may occur in our spaces and activities.
