Protect Feminist Progress, Act Against Anti-Rights Setbacks.
Make a Donation or Start a Fundraiser.
Feminist progress is under threat. Gender-based violence is on the rise and anti-rights governments worldwide are slashing essential funding, undermining civil rights, and threatening gender-based legal protections. This means less support for services like safe spaces (shelters), helplines, healthcare, and legal aid for women, girls, trans and intersex people.
Feminist movements will lose hundreds of millions in essential funding by 2026.
Marginalised communities will be the first to suffer the consequences.
There is so much we can do if we come together as a community! Join us in our 16 Days of Activism Campaign Against Gender-Based Violence to help us raise the necessary funds to push back anti-rights movements worldwide and continue to protect our rights!

Feminist funding under threat
Current governments will roll-back progress made through cutting down budgets that would otherwise be used towards improving gender equality, strengthening democracy and protecting marginalised communities. Women, girls, LBTQI and marginalised communities will be the first in line to suffer the consequences as they will risk losing hard-won rights, facing increased gender-based violence and lacking access to services that could protect them.Women in the crossfire
In politically unstable regions, women, girls, trans, and intersex people are at immediate and long-term heightened risks of sexual and gender-based violence, systemic abuse, and exploitation. Feminist movements already struggle to deliver services in such regions. Further funding cuts may force them to stop certain activities altogether. Gender-based violence is a common tactic of war. In Congo and Sudan, women face kidnapping, gang rapes, sexual assault, harassment, and forced marriages. In Gaza, women, children, and newborns are the first to suffer, constituting 70% of the 44,000 casualties in the past 12 months.Your Impact,
Our Wins!
Your support has strengthened feminist grassroots movements that are fighting anti-rights and repressive governments around the globe. They protected human rights, secured reproductive rights, and condemned state violence and racism. They changed laws to improve and bring justice to the lives of millions of women, girls, LBTQI people, sex workers, and refugees.
