PROJECTS | HerRights

HerRights projects are aligned to three action items. We review, select and fund promising, high-impact projects presented by partner organizations, and when the need arises, pilot our own programs as well.

Our Grievance Cell Based Model (GCBM) Projects offer help to victims and organizations who reach out to us with their stories, communicating an urgent need for help. GCBM projects are designed to offer anonymity to protect the victims and individuals involved.

Pandemic Impact on Women

How has the pandemic impacted women, and more so, women of color and those who live in poverty?

Meet. Learn and Act Together

Creating networks of women to support, mentor and inspire one another through challenging times, and act together for gender and social justice.

Gender Rights Crisis in Afghanistan

We are deeply disturbed by the situation in Afghanistan because we believe that ‘injustice anywhere is injustice everywhere.’ Especially when it comes to gender and other persecuted segments, the miles we have ahead of us are many, and any setback in any part of the world critically destabilizes progress made elsewhere. We therefore stand committed to assist in any and all ways, and are publishing here some resources as received from our partners.
