As more governments adopt Feminist Foreign Policy frameworks, questions remain about how inclusive and context-sensitive these approaches truly are.
In this episode of The Diplomat’s Cabinet, host Maria Luísa Moreira speaks with Ambika Vishwanath, Founder Director of the Kubernein Initiative and DFAT-funded Research Fellow at La Trobe Asia, to unpack what inclusive foreign policy should actually look like across different geographies.
Drawing from India’s approach to foreign policy, which has been deliberately inclusive but not explicitly labeled, Ambika offers a grounded perspective on how regional dynamics shape policy priorities and impact implementation.
We examine the limits of global frameworks, the risks of exporting models without local adaptation, and the practical steps needed to build foreign policy that reflects lived realities rather than symbolic gestures.
Listen in for a sharper lens on inclusion and what it means to build policy that works from the ground up.
