Feminist Foreign Policy In 2018, Canada became the second country to publicly adopt a feminist foreign policy. Canada followed the example of Sweden, which has promoted a feminist foreign policy since 2014. The goal of the initiative is to promote the empowerment of women in foreign affairs sectors, from development to trade. Currently there are two female representatives of feminist foreign policy in Washington: Ambassador Karin Olofsdotter of Sweden (left) and Ambassador Jennifer Loten, Permanent Representative of Canada to the OAS (right).
