Overview
This grant will support the International Women’s Health Coalition to partner with advocacy organizations in developing countries to advocate for sexual and reproductive health and rights, with a particular focus on improving young people’s access to reproductive health information and services and making safe abortion services more widely available. The five-year grant term will allow the Coalition to commit to longer partnerships with local organizations, and address capacity needs in more sustained and tailored ways. This is anticipated to help make sure local organizations can better articulate and follow through on their advocacy priorities, and work with the Coalition to connect these local priorities to the global agenda.

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.
