Co-Impact announces new partnerships with 13 initiatives in Africa through the Gender Fund

Nov 3, 2023

Co-Impact has awarded $4.3M USD in grants to 13 initiatives in Africa that are working to create positive changes for millions of people across a range of issues including maternal and child health, sexual and reproductive health, gender equality, access to education and healthcare, and improved economic and leadership opportunities for women.

This includes one research grant to generate evidence for meaningful changes in the care economy and childcare services ecosystem and 12 design grants to support the organizations in sharpening and refining their strategies for scalable and sustainable systems change.

We recognize that organizations that are working on the complex work of shifting systems to be more just and gender equitable do not often have sufficient space or resources to do the deep thinking needed to develop concrete strategies for their work. Our Design Phase aims to provide program partners with the time, resources, ideas, tools, community, and support necessary for them to engage in deep strategic thinking and organizational strengthening work. Through the design process, these partners will be able to clearly articulate how they can scale their initiatives and work through the key systems their initiatives focus on.
