It seems that there are too few interested funders, with too little money, to support existing women's rights organizations and initiatives. Is it that women's rights groups are not bold enough in their fundraising strategies? Is it that donors simply don't understand the urgency and importance of this work? What has really been happening in terms of funding for women's rights organizations in the last ten years and what have been the driving forces behind those trends? This report is the result of an action research initiative launched by AWID to explore precisely those questions and to give insights into possible strategies for changing the existing funding landscape so that more resources are made available to women's rights organizations. The first version of the report was presented at the last AWID Forum in Bangkok, in October 2005.
Spanish, French and Arabic versions of the report will be available soon!
Following, you can access the February 2006 revised and designed version of the research report in PDF files.
