"The government of President Gabriel Boric recently announced its commitment to
a “feminist foreign policy,” which it described as the first of its kind in
South America, joining countries like Spain, Canada, Germany, Sweden and
Mexico.

What does such a policy really mean? What are the challenges to implementation
in a foreign policy world where women are underrepresented and often treated
unfairly? What lessons are there for other countries in the region, including
Brazil, where a group of diplomats recently expressed interest in a similarly
feminist policy in an article for AQ?

AQ’s editor-in-chief Brian Winter discussed these questions and more in a
July 11 interview with Gloria de la Fuente, an undersecretary at Chile’s
foreign ministry who participated in the formulation of the policy. This
interview has been edited for content and clarity."
