AWID: the 2nd fund her Report: Financial Sustainability for Women’s Movements Worldwide

This report looks at fundamental questions in relation to resource mobilization and movement-building: How are women’s organizations and movements growing worldwide? Why do we need strong women’s movements and organizations? Where is the money for women’s rights? How should we mobilize new resources to build stronger feminist movements in order to advance women’s rights worldwide?

On the following pages we tackle these questions by presenting and analyzing primary research data based on a survey of almost one thousand women’s organisations worldwide. The findings and trend analysis in this report are also a product of literature reviews, interviews and discussions with donors, as well as insights and recommendations from 300 women’s rights leaders and funding allies from 94 countries who met at the end of 2006 in Queretaro, Mexico at the AWID and Semilla’s Money and Movements meeting.
