A just world for women and girls

Dear John

Equality Now elevates women’s rights and gender equality as an essential part of international human rights.

When we started, 30 years ago, domestic violence was an acceptable part of life, sex trafficking was not named as a matter of international concern, female genital mutilation and child marriage were just cultural practices and rape was merely a by-product of war, but not a war crime.

Since then there has been a sea change in the recognition of women’s rights and equality that we have contributed to, but our work is far from done. Our vision, mission and values remain the same.

Last week we launched our new Strategic Plan, Future Proofing Equality ([link removed]) . In case you missed it, as a valued Equality Now supporter, I wanted to share some of the key takeaways with you.

The world in 2022 is as unstable as in any period in recent history. As global trends and priorities are changing rapidly, a three-year strategic plan will give us focus and flexibility. It will continue to tackle current challenges and respond to new and emerging issues. In this age of mistrust and constant attacks on women’s rights, it will enable us to secure more resources, even in this scarce environment.

Our goals for the next three years can be summarized in three core areas:
* We will GLOBALIZE our work using innovative new solutions to tackle new and entrenched inequality.
* We will GALVANIZE the people around us, and bring new people into our movement, with the influence and resources to face every future challenge.
* We will LEAD by ensuring we always act as one coherent and effective organization, delivering and demonstrating impact.

Future Proofing Equality ([link removed]) will empower us to maintain responsiveness, flexibility, and focus as we grow our networks and redouble our efforts in concert with essential partners to make a more just and equal world for women and girls.

Are you in?

Achieving our goals, which will improve the lives of millions of women, men, girls, and boys, will lie in reaching and building ever more diverse communities dedicated to equality. We need the committed support of passionate, connected, and invested partners to make this happen.

We’re so grateful to have you by our side in our efforts to build a safe, equal, and just world for every woman and girl.
