Urgent Action Fund Africa

As a feminist, pan-African, rapid-response fund, Urgent Action Fund (UAF) Africa plays a critical role in resourcing African feminist movements to transform inequitable power structures that diminish women’s worth and undermine their rights. Through an activist-centered approach, UAF Africa provides flexible funding and accompaniment to African human rights defenders, advocates for equitable philanthropic practice, and contributes to cultures of care and healing in the feminist ecosystem.
