Alliance for Feminist Movements
Engage & Collaborate
Build Political Support & Visibility
Amplify the Evidence Base
Shift Funding Principles & Practices
If we...
Improve multi-stakeholder coordination and collaboration in the feminist funding ecosystem.
Engage the leadership from our institutions in support of diverse feminist movements, agendas, and policies.
Amplify the existing evidence base, including evidence generated by feminists, demonstrating the impact of feminist movements.
Shift donor policies and behaviors through multi-stakeholder dialogues, innovative partnerships, peer encouragement, and learning.
Then...
Through dialogue and innovative partnerships, different types of funders will be able to develop complementary funding strategies with feminist movements and address funding barriers.
There will be more widespread and public recognition of feminist movements as effective and legitimate political actors for positive change.
The research and evidence helps the field learn about the different barriers to funding, identify strategic efforts to overcome the
barriers, and understand how feminist movements are impactful.
Barriers to funding are reduced and the quality and quantity of existing and new funding is improved.
So that...
The overall feminist funding ecosystem will be more responsive to the needs of feminist movements, more complementary, more enabling, and more sustainable.
Donors of all types will increase political support to feminist movements, new donors will fund movements, and the enabling environment in which feminist movements operate will improve.
Data on the state of the feminist funding ecosystem, new and innovative practices, and impact of feminist movements is amplified and moves the needle on more and better funding.
Feminist movements and organizations receive higher-quality funding and have increased access to resources that are currently out-of-reach.
Ultimately
Feminist movements, organizations, and funds have increased, high-quality resources and political support to advocate for transformative and effective policies, programs, and actions that address the complex global challenges of our time.
