Right now, there is a pushback against gender rights — against the freedoms we have fought for, the spaces we have created, and the dignity we deserve.
We cannot afford complacency in the face of this resistance. We must push forward against the pushback — together.
You can help make that happen. By taking action today.
At UN Women UK, we’re on a mission to ensure that ALL women and girls have access to safety, choice and a voice. In the UK and around the world.
90% of global women’s organisations are being pushed to breaking point due to funding cuts, according to a report released by UN Women in 2025.
Almost half (47%) of women’s organisations are expecting to shut down within six months if current funding levels persist. Your support has never been more urgent.
50% of your donations fund our work here in the UK at all levels, in all areas of society — 50% fund our vital work with women and girls around the world
£10 helps fund critical research to support evidence-based advocacy, encouraging national government to increase violence prevention work
£25 helps provide digital toolkits to prevent and tackle online violence against women and girls

£100 could provide training for banking and financial services staff to help break down the barriers for women entrepreneurs in Myanmar
If nothing changes, it’ll be 300 years before we achieve gender equality.
Every day, women and girls around the world are seeing their rights cut back.
Girls are risking kidnapping and assault for going to school. Women’s sexual and reproductive rights are being driven back. And when a crisis hits, women and girls are affected first and worst.
The patriarchy is fighting back. But so are you.
