Yarrow Global Consulting gGmbH is a feminist non-profit founded in 2019 that focuses on the intersection of health, gender and the environment. Through qualitative research and evaluation, consultancy work and policy analysis we contribute to dismantling unequal power structures and driving sustainable change at organizational and policy levels. We work with an international network of professionals from the areas of global health and wellbeing, gender research and feminist thought, and environment and climate change.
Mission Statement
Mission
Our mission is creating more inclusive public policies through building capacities of women*-led civil society, facilitating dialog between civil society and public administration and raising public awareness of the intersection between gender, health and the climate crisis.
Goal
Our goal is to emphasize and expand the positive impact women*-led civil society is making on people and the planet.
How we work
We work through a feminist lens
We focus on bottom-up approaches and participatory methods, valuing lived experience and practice, expressed through the voices of the people we work with.
Our trainings and facilitations are based on mutual understandings of inequalities and strive to create violence free spaces of communication and conduct.
Our approach is intersectional and transformative. We negotiate diverse settings and support solutions that challenge the status quo.
We strive to position ourselves in the complex power dynamics that accompany consulting and research.
We work to make power relationships visible, uncovering unconscious biases and enabling dialogue.
We strongly believe in utopias; we believe a better world is possible.
Our Consultants
We work with a select number of qualified consultants with expertise in gender and climate. The majority have many years of professional experience, but we also train and prepare young graduates. We believe that diverse teams with varied perspectives are better able to produce sustainable solutions for global challenges.
We provide our consultants administrative and technical support and assist with project management where necessary. The rising number of cross-sectional projects demands new skills in the area of digitization, agile methods, and alternative work and management concepts. We support consultants by offering in-house and external training in these areas.
