YOUR UN WOMEN UK COMMUNITY
A free digital home, where passionate ideas become intentional actions
With a 300-year wait for gender equality, there’s so much to do it can feel overwhelming
You’re not the only one who feels lost in the sea of action, petition, decision that comes with anxiety over the state of gender equality.
Every day, we see another story that shows how equality for women is reducing. Whether it’s here in the UK or across the globe, it often feels like work in women’s rights is overlooked.
Change needs to happen. But how?
What if there was a place where feminists felt at home?
Where you could connect and collaborate with people who share your values?
Where you could create meaningful change that makes a real difference to our world?
A community’s a powerful place. It’s even more powerful when it’s built around a common purpose.
This is where you can connect with like-minded people. Use your voice on an urgent issue. Discover fresh ways to create meaningful progress.
When you want to take action.
When you want to make it count.
When you want to see a change.
A community can connect you with the right people to do that.

365 days of impact. From one online home
The Community was designed to create a ripple effect of change. It started with our first digital participation for CSW (the Commission on the Status of Women) in 2022.
The reaction was phenomenal, with thousands of you joining us to engage in sessions online from the comfort of your homes across the UK. But we didn’t want the impact to end when CSW was over.
Enter: the Community.
This is a (free) space for change, open 365 days a year. Where you can connect and network with one another but also with us. In short, the platform creates a ripple effect of change.
Free to join. From wherever you are in the UK.
Here’s what you’ll find inside your new digital home:
A dedicated app, where you can network, create connections and discuss the future of women’s rights with people who are just as passionate as you are
Monthly community calls, with behind-the-scenes updates from UN Women UK team members and opportunities to get even more involved
A community book club, where we read and discuss a hand-picked book every two months
Access to exclusive events, such as the annual Commission on the Status of Women, private community workshops and plenty more

“Thanks for being a great organisation and network. I am always wanting to do more and the real access supporters to support in other ways through the networks established by Atonte are brilliant.”
