In no society on earth do women enjoy the same rights, access to resources, or economic opportunities as men.

This is not to say that all men are rich, rather to recognise that whether men are rich or poor, women are almost always poorer.

WOMANKIND Worldwide has a vision. It is of a just, equitable and peaceful world in which women are equal partners with men in determining the values, direction and governance of their societies for the benefit of us all.

Our promise to women in developing countries – our mission – therefore, is to enable them to voice their concerns and claim their rights, and to work globally for policies and practices which promote equality between men and women.

To achieve that mission, WOMANKIND Worldwide has three aims:

  1. To advance women’s status and wellbeing through increasing their political and civil participation.
  2. To reduce violence against women.
  3. To inform and influence policy and practice at local, national, regional and international levels.

We are able to pursue these aims through our partners on the ground and in individual women's lives, thanks to the people and organisations who entrust us with their financial support.
