The Her Voice Fund, launched by Womankind Worldwide, is offering flexible financial support to women’s rights and feminist organizations and activists in the Global South.
.
The initiative aims to amplify intersectional voices often excluded from decision-making spaces, enabling advocates to influence policies at local, national, regional, and international levels.
.
Under this fund, feminist organizations and informal activist groups working with marginalized women—such as those with disabilities, LGBTQ+ individuals, young women, and incarcerated women—can apply for grants tailored to foster meaningful advocacy. These grants recognize how traditional funding often overlooks grassroots-led policy influence, particularly from communities facing intersecting discrimination.
.
Benefits:
There are two grant streams.
- Registered feminist organizations can apply for up to £40,000 to support their work over 24 months, while informal groups with the right focus and mission may receive up to £20,000 for the same period.
- Applications must describe how they advance feminist agendas, tackle systemic inequality, and strengthen movement-building through inclusive collaboration.
Eligibility:
Applicants must meet the following criteria:
- Identify as a women’s rights or feminist organisation (whether an existing partner or informal group) whose vision and mission focuses on advancing the rights of women in all their diversities.
- Advance progressive women’s rights and feminist agendas in key advocacy spaces and opportunities at the national, regional and international levels.
- Address systemic and structural barriers that continue to perpetuate gender inequality and discrimination.
- Demonstrate collaboration with multiple organisations and/or a commitment to strengthening feminist movement building.
- Adopt an intersectional feminist approach that recognises and centres the voices of the most marginalised girls and women in all their diversities.
- Be based in one of Womankind’s focus countries: Ethiopia, Kenya, Uganda, Zimbabwe or Nepal.
