What is the Women’s Emergency Fund?
Money raised from the Awards Ceremony will go directly to our Women’s Emergency Fund, supporting women in countries from Sudan, Afghanistan, Gaza and Ukraine. The world’s media aren’t always able to cover everywhere that women desperately need your support. This fund will help to ensure that globally no women are forgotten.
So far, through our global work, we’ve: Reached over 1.8 million women and girls through our humanitarian work, in countries from Afghanistan to Ukraine and Pakistan Supported 21 million women and girls with grants for local work to end violence Strengthened women’s economic empowerment in 44 countries (home to 1.6 billion women and girls). With 5,365 companies and organisations now prioritising women’s empowerment and women-owned businesses Implemented action plans to end gendered violence in 57 countries (home to 2.5 billion women and girls).
Now is the time for change!
Together we can ensure that every woman and girl has access to safety, choice and a voice. Let’s build a more equitable world for all.
