A moment of gratitude

Dear John,

As we move firmly into 2024, we want to take one final opportunity to thank all of you who supported Womankind last year.

Despite tumultuous world events, feminists everywhere continue to demand change, and with your support, we are backing them all the way.  

From girls in Kenya taking a stand against sexual harassment to the women advocating for their right to land in Zimbabwe, feminist movements are a force of positive change. 

In the last year, we continued to work with partners in our five focus countries, Ethiopia, Kenya, Nepal, Uganda, and Zimbabwe, all working to advance women’s rights and gender equality in their communities and beyond.  

We also expanded our work to Afghanistan, where we have launched a new strategy supporting women’s rights organisations and women human rights defenders in Afghanistan and in exile.

In 2022-23 we...

Supported our partners with £2,292,315 of funding, this includes 36 flexible funding grants to Womankind partner organisations and informal groups.

15 projects were delivered with our partners working on ending violence against women and girls, advancing women’s economic rights, strengthening women’s participation and leadership, and more.

Through our two grant programmes, the Movement Strengthening fund and Her Voice Fund, we funded a total of 51 feminist initiatives.

Realising our vision of a feminist future has never been more urgent. From increasing conflicts (Gaza, Ukraine, Sudan, amongst others) and the disproportionate impact on women and girls, to the gender apartheid being imposed by the Taliban in Afghanistan; women’s rights are under threat in every corner of the world.

But it’s essential we remain connected and hopeful.

Thank you for your commitment and support of Womankind over the last year. We hope you will continue to stand alongside us on this journey.

With best wishes for the year ahead!
