Priorities
Global Fund for Women has refreshed its grantmaking model to ensure greater clarity and transparency in relation to its vision, approach and regional grantmaking priorities. These priorities are intended to align with women’s human rights trends and needs and to ensure that the grantmaking informs other programmatic initiatives and advocacy. We are committed to supporting collaboration and partnership by and between grantees in order to strengthen and sustain impact. Our grantmaking strategy reflects three tiers of grants that include:
§ Catalyzing new women-led organizations and initiatives
§ Strengthening the work of existing grantees
§ Assisting long-term grantees to consolidate, accelerate and extend their work, learning and impact
Grant Criteria
Who Global Fund supports
§ Groups of women working together.
§ Organizations that demonstrate a clear commitment to women’s equality and women’s human rights.
§ Organizations that are governed and directed by women.
§ Organizations based outside of the United States.
Who Global Fund does NOT support
§ Individuals and Scholarships
§ Organizations that do not have a women’s human rights focus.
§ Organizations headed or managed by men.
§ Organizations whose sole activities are income-generation and/or charity.
§ Organizations based or working primarily in the United States.
§ Organizations in the Global North proposing partnerships in the Global South.
§ Government entities, political parties or election campaigns.
