Please note that this is not a full list of partners we support. Last updated July 2025.

Economic Opportunity

What if women had equal access to decent jobs and entrepreneurship instead of flawed economic systems that limit their potential, demand they bear the brunt of unpaid care work (Global Citizen) and hold back economies (UN Women). We support over 40 partners who work with governments and the private sector to apply gender-transformative solutions that enhance everyone’s economic welfare.

Health

What if health systems worked for everyone — especially women and children? Inadequate health systems perpetuate inequality and negatively affect health and economic security. We support over 30 partners working to transform health systems and expand reproductive, maternal, and child health services – improving access and reducing mortality.

Education

What if education systems unlocked every child’s potential? Millions of children – particularly girls – face barriers to quality learning. We work with over 20 partners to transform education systems so more girls can stay in school and succeed. By improving access and inclusion, education becomes a force for generational change and a tool to break the cycle of inequality for all.

Women in Leadership

What if women led equally in the domains of law and economics? Systemic barriers keep women from shaping the policies and institutions that define society. We support over 30 partners working to elevate women’s leadership in courts, ministries, and economic forums. More women in power leads to better laws, stronger economies, and fairer, more inclusive societies.

Support Ecosystems

What if systems-change efforts operated like an ecosystem? Our ecosystem grants back communities of practice, feminist funds, and data initiatives that enhance learning, improve government decision-making, and build grassroots power across health, education, economic opportunity and women’s leadership.
