Five years after its launch, the Women’s Peace and Humanitarian Fund (WPHF) has established itself as an innovative and effective partnership between the United Nations, civil society and Member States – mobilizing urgently needed financing and hard-fought recognition for local women-led and women’s rights organizations in crisis-affected countries across the globe.
As you will discover in the pages of the WPHF 2020 Annual Report, the past year was one of tremendous challenges and constant adaptation to the new realities of COVID-19 and its profound impact on women and their local civil society organizations on the front lines.
WPHF saw exponential growth in 2020, with 151 new grants to local women’s organizations, bringing to 201 the total number of grants provided and to 345 the total number of civil society organizations supported since its launch in 2016.
