The Womanity Foundation

  • I Implementer

Description

The Womanity Foundation works on improving the current state of women’s and girl’s rights and opportunities in order to achieve gender equality. 

We are a lean, passionate team committed to breaking barriers and unlocking women’s potential so that entire communities can thrive. This mission has led us to work on prevention of violence against women and girls, supporting grassroots organizations, girls’ education, leveraging media for gender equality, and most recently, women’s access to land rights. 

We have found these to be critical challenges faced in low-income communities in the Global South. We strive to address them through innovative solutions and partnerships. 

We acknowledge the complexity of these challenges and believe in the power of collaboration. Our role is to support innovative ideas, curate collaboration, and create platforms that enable social change. We will continue to identify needs, test and try solutions, learn from our experiences, and fight everyday for equality across the globe.
