It starts on 2019, after a reflective process of the technical team at that time and after welcoming criticism from the organizations with which we collaborate as a result of a study on the situation of the movement of migrant and racialized women in the Spanish State. that evidenced practices that could be qualified as colonial and that made awaken our desire to look at ourselves, to recognize those traits and think about how to work on them. This is the beginning of Calala's commitment to introduce a decolonial perspective into the organization.
For the 2020 we carry out a diagnosis by a migrant colleague who is part of the women's movements of community feminism and who focused on the following topics 5 axes of analysis: the political will of the management, the composition and structure of the organization, the technical skills of the team, the organizational culture and the monitoring mechanisms. we would have to equip ourselves with. Ironically, during this same period in the interior of Calala, a racist aggression between peers occurs, which leads to the departure of the aggressor. 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 an image we did not expect and which showed us how much there was to work on. It was at that moment that we decided approve what we lovingly call Plan Alebrije, an action plan that would help us move forward on the road to becoming an anti-racist organization 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 to create a protocol to address racist violence, This year, the work to this end is being intensified, thus obtaining the first draft. Workshops are also held specially designed for the organization that further deepen our process.
The year 2023 the work of the Care area of the organization is emphasized, and our commitment to decoloniality is reaffirmed. publicly pronouncing that decoloniality is part of our values and that it is inscribed as such in our Theory of change and therefore this value is transversal in our work as a Women's Fund. On the other hand, the Assembly Town Square, our partners in Plan Alebrije, advise us on the mainstreaming of the Decolonial and Anti-racist perspective in Calala's internal policies, We are working to ensure that our relationship, whether with partners, funders, suppliers, donors and 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 imposition of an unequal order between some people and others, which seeks to prevent, manage, heal and offer elements to repair situations of injustice based on the idea of race. We know that the journey is long, and not without 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.
