| This article describes a 4-year linkage project (1992-1996) between the University of Indonesia and the Memorial University, Canada, to establish a Women's Studies Programme at the University of Indonesia. The proposal of the Canadian International Development Agency (main Canadian government funding agency) contained the inherent assumption that all the materials and expertise resided in the Canadian University. The problem was therefore, how to build an equal partnership from this and make it work. the processes involved are discussed here, including the discovery that equal partnership does not mean "exactly the same§, but means equally respecting each others' differences. lessons and implications for building global feminisms are drawn out, highlighting the need to resist the imposition of Western feminism and allow for many different feminisms. The conclusion drawn is that the project was successful, but that there is a long way to go before what is called "western" feminism does not dominate | |
