Overview
The International Women’s Health Coalition (IWHC) defends and advances sexual and reproductive health and rights through trust-based philanthropic partnerships with women’s organizations and movements. IWHC engages in policy advocacy on women’s health and rights at the global level, and with its partners at regional and national levels. IWHC prioritizes three areas: resourcing diverse and inclusive feminist movements in low- and middle-income countries; applying evidence-informed advocacy to oppose harmful norms, laws, and discourses that hinder the full expression of sexual and reproductive health and rights; and ensuring that its organizational values are reflected in internal practices and external partnerships.

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.
