Mission and Theory of Change

Sexual and Gender-Based Violence (SGBV) is the most pressing human rights issue of our time.

Our mission is to fuel a worldwide network of Women Human Rights Defenders (WHRDs) to strengthen laws, policies and practices to end SGBV. We are a nonprofit organization registered in the US.

Theory of Change (ToC): we believe that when WHRDs - fighting SGBV - are resourced with expert knowledge & enabled to collectively carry forward their voice, then they are strengthened to transform cultures, systems and institutions towards justice.
