Issues Affecting Women Programme
The programme focuses on:
- Addressing violence against women, including domestic violence, honour killings, and women in conflict and refugee situations;
- Preventing trafficking of women, especially among immigrant women by supporting efforts in sending and receiving countries;
Grantees usually combine direct services to women with policy advocacy to produce long-term change. Historically, the programme has focused on Europe and North America, and has made a limited number of grants in selected developing countries.
Please be advised that the Issues Affecting Women Programme is not currently accepting new requests for funding.
