Advancing Pacific Feminist Movements
Supporting Pacific feminists and gender non-conforming activists in advancing human rights and gender equality during the climate crisis.
About Pacific Feminist Fund
The Pacific Feminist Fund is for and by Pacific feminists and the Pacific feminist movement, responding to needs as defined by them. We deliver swift, responsive and impactful support and we advocate transforming the broader funding landscape so that more resources can reach Pacific changemakers at the frontlines.
We are focused on building wealth and resources for feminist, women and gender nonconforming human rights defenders' movements in the Pacific. We will explore the world of gender lens investment to create our investment portfolio.
As part of our efforts to increase our visibility and access to defenders, we are in the process of ramping up our communications, so that it capably supports our grantmaking, knowledge-generation, and resource mobilisation efforts.
