Pourquoi une politique étrangère véritablement féministe doit s’attaquer à la cause profonde de la crise climatique

The statement asserts that a truly feminist foreign policy (FFP) requires a legally binding Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty to address the supply side of climate change. It argues that fossil fuel dependence perpetuates structural violence and exploitation, and calls on states to align their diplomatic efforts with intersectional feminist values and the International Court of Justice's advisory opinion on climate damage. The document recommends joining the treaty initiative and participating in the first International Conference for the Phase-out of Fossil Fuels in Colombia in April 2026.

• The Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty is presented as a justice-centered mechanism to end fossil fuel expansion and ensure a global transition that is fast and feminist, complementing the Paris Agreement by targeting the supply of fossil fuels.
• A feminist foreign policy (FFP) is framed as incompatible with continued fossil fuel dependence because the industry sustains the same systems of patriarchy, colonialism, militarism, and exploitation that FFP aims to dismantle.
• The document links the treaty to legal obligations, citing a July 2025 advisory opinion from the International Court of Justice which confirmed that states must prevent significant climate damage by regulating fossil fuel production and subsidies.
• Colombia announced in September 2025 that it will host the first International Conference for the Phase-out of Fossil Fuels in April 2026 to facilitate international cooperation and formal treaty negotiations.
• The document outlines six guiding feminist values for the treaty: intersectionality (centering the most affected), empathic reflexivity (historical responsibility of the Global North), meaningful leadership (inclusive design), accountability (transparency over profit), active engagement for peace (linking fossil fuels to conflict), and commitment to decolonial justice (restoring sovereignty and land rights).
