Hosted by The Women Peace and Humanitarian Fund (WPHF) and the Spotlight Initiative, the event will discuss how institutional (core) funding is essential to the survival of local women’s organizations and the sustainability of their work in building peace and gender equality.

Panelists will be highlighting the funding gaps for women’s organizations that the Covid-19 pandemic exacerbated. Local women’s organization's partners of WPHF and the Spotlight Initiative, from Yemen, Uganda, South Sudan, Haiti, Papua New Guinea, the Democratic Republic of Congo, and Liberia, will share their perspectives on how institutional funding is used and why is it essential not only to their existence but also to the quality of the work they deliver. Examples of UN mechanisms which offer institutional funding will be presented while reflecting on preliminary lessons learned in terms of access and measuring the impacts of such funding. The event will be taking place online in English, with simultaneous interpretation in French, Spanish, Russian and Portuguese.
