Overview
The International Women’s Health Coalition and its partners from developing countries support and lead initiatives to influence policies and funding in countries and global agencies to secure the sexual and reproductive health and rights of women and girls. The Coalition’s advocacy strategy has five components: mentor and support younger, emerging leaders and activists from the South; collaborate with other organizations and alliances; build capacity of organizations and leaders in selected countries; engage with staff of U.N. agencies, especially UNAIDS and UNFPA; and provide strategic communications components such as publications, speeches, and online activities to inform policy and program design.

Grants to this Grantee
for the continued support of diversity, equity, and inclusion work
This grant will support the International Women’s Health Coalition (IWHC) to institutionalize diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) as a core value in its organizational culture and external advocacy, grantmaking, and movement building. IWHC has centered DEI in its new strategic plan goals. With this grant, IWHC will embark on a second phase of DEI work, which includes establishing a shared language and rationale for DEI within the organization, creating an action plan to operationalize DEI; and designing a learning journey to build the DEI capacity of its staff and board members.
