Across Oceans

Sometimes, the most radical thing we can do is remember that we are not struggling alone. Across Oceans is a feminist podcast connecting voices from Beirut, Lebanon, to Southwest Asia and North Africa (SWANA) and Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) through conversations on sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR). Hosted by Maha Al Mawla a Legal Researcher, Human Rights Activist , the podcast brings together feminist activists, researchers, lawyers and advocates to explore decolonization, access to justice, bodily autonomy and collective liberation through dialogue, shared experiences and feminist solidarity across regions. From Beirut to Latin America, these conversations remind us that solidarity doesn't require us to share the same history. It begins by recognizing that the systems we resist are deeply connected and that our struggles become stronger when we listen across borders. Creator: Nadia Ahmad Co-Creator Maha Al Mawla
