Description
1) Objective
The Resilience Fund supports feminist groups, collectives and initiatives that are founded, led, and/or run by people who belong to the communities whose rights they seek to advance. They are working to advance their own political and social agendas, to build connections across issues and borders, and to strengthen feminist and other social justice movements. The Resilience Fund gives priority to smaller and emerging groups that are doing critically important work but have limited access to funding. In addition to funding registered, formal organisations, they are open to funding informal or unregistered groups of activists, as well as networks or coalitions.
Mama Cash supports groups and initiatives that:
1. Work from a feminist, women’s, girl’s, trans and/or intersex rights perspective;
2. Are self-led by the women, girls, trans people and/or intersex people they serve;
3. Have the promotion of women’s, girls’, trans people’s and/or intersex people’s human rights as their primary mission, and not just as the focus of part of their programmes;
4. Push for structural and fundamental change;
5. Focus on issues that are under-addressed and/or contested;
