What we fund

The core objective of the Leading from the South grants is to support organizations to scale up their strategies for political, social, and economic empowerment of women. LFS grants largely support women’s rights work across these priority areas:

• Climate change and environmental justice

• Leadership, voice-agency and women’s political participation

• Violence against women

• Women’s economic justice

Each fund may further implement other criteria in their portfolios pertaining to their respective missions in their own region.
