Two collaborations—the Alliance of Women’s and Feminist Funds of Latin America and the Caribbean (the Alliance) and On the Right Track (OTRT)—illustrated different approaches to narrative power in feminist movements. The grant enabled the Alliance to document its history and shape the narrative of its contributions, while OTRT supported the work of three European and two Latin American funds. OTRT has worked for five years to shape narratives that expand democracy and oppose fundamentalisms, fake news, and hate speech. Both collaborations were preexisting but support from Fenomenal Funds provided resources to further solidify their relationships, allowing them to intentionally move towards their shared goals and vision.
