Mediterranean Women's Fund
About Mediterranean Women's Fund
MedWF (Mediterranean Women’s Fund) was launched in 2008 by prioritizing to fund initiatives of associations defending women’s rights. MedWF supports the activities of women working to change the Mediterranean region by funding women’s associations to provide them with the material and human resources to take action; strengthening the capacities of young women leaders to enable them to better mobilize their strengths and use their creativity to construct a more just society; gathering together organizations to provide them with a space to discuss, unite, and act together; and speaking up to major institutions to advocate for larger and more accessible grants for women’s associations.
Mission
Since its creation, the Mediterranean Women's Fund has been committed to strengthening the women's movement in all the countries of the Mediterranean basin. Its purpose is to contribute concretely and ambitiously to improving the status of women.
Vision
For Mediterranean women's organizations to have the concrete means to act, unite, and make themselves heard, the Mediterranean Women's Fund pulls together the necessary resources and tailors its support to the specific needs of each group. By amplifying their voices and their movement, it allows these associations to become a force of change for the emancipation of women.
