At The Global Women's Project, we believe every woman and girl in the world has the potential to make great change.

Unfortunately, not all of them have the same opportunity to. There are many cultural, political and social forces threatening to force women into the shadows, to deny them of their rights and make sure their voices remain unheard. 

We are not okay with this.

That's why we have one sole purpose – to give women around the world the tools and resources they need to build better lives for themselves, their families and communities. 

We provide women with access to information, skills, resources and community.

Information so they can know their rights and how to access them. Skills so they can start and grow their own businesses or find jobs. Resources, like loans, so they can grow their businesses. And places of community, so they can lean on each other and so that they have somewhere to go when they need support.

Since 2013, we've provided over 2500 women in Cambodia and Nepal with tools like these. Over the next five years we have an ambitious plan to reach another 10,000.

We are The Global Women's Project – a registered Australian non-profit organisation determined to do things differently. 

Our work is driven by the local women we work with. We don't prescribe solutions. We don't make excuses if things don't go exactly to plan. We don't tie funding. This kind of work is messy. Natural disasters, economic instability, conflict - that's the world we work in. Our job, our only job, is to support the women we work with to realise their aspirations. 

Our work is powered by women, for women. We've joined forces with local women’s organisations in Cambodia and Nepal to help power the change they want to see in their communities and countries.

Today there are over ten of us – women, men, staff, volunteers and community members – all working together across Australia, Nepal and Cambodia.

Come and live with us in our world – one in which every woman has choice, independence and power to create change.

The Global Women's Project is proudly independent and relies on generous donations to do our work. Make a tax deductible donation.

Six big ideas.

Put women first

Women need the tools to take action themselves. Everything we do is about helping women unlock that power.

Don't mess about

We run a tight ship. We spend our money wisely, we run our programs efficiently, and we show our working. This is how we build a sustainable organisation and a lasting movement for change.

Promote real change for equality

The challenges facing women are systemic. The system needs to change, and women need the tools to play a leading role in changing it.

Strengthen local women's groups

The places we work are already full of remarkable organisations of remarkable women doing remarkable work. We amplify their impact by opening up opportunities for them.

Smarter programs

We are continually seeking out better ways to work, and are not afraid to change our approach if we discover a better alternative.

Sharing and learning

We aren’t secretive or protective. We collaborate generously with all of our partners. After all, working together is at the very heart of feminism!
