Greetings to you from Jumuiya Women Fund (JWF), based in Eldoret, Kenya

JWF is a women’s rights fund committed to women’s empowerment. Our mission is to mobilize financial, human and material resources to support initiatives for transformation led by women and girls in East Africa

With support of Equality Fund Canada-https://equalityfund.ca, JWF is providing small grants to eligible women rights and development organizations in selected counties across Kenya, who are working to advance human rights and socio-economic empowerment of women and girls, enabling them realize their full potentials in society in line with the sustainable development goals.

JWF addresses the six critical issues that underpin gender equality: i) Gender-Based Violence; ii) Economic Justice and Rights; iii) Bodily Autonomy and Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR); iv) Feminist Action for Climate Justice; v) Technology and Innovation for Gender Equality; and vi) Feminist Movements and Leadership.

In line with with iv) Feminist Action for Climate Justice above, I wish to express our desire to partner with your organization to address and accelerate our Feminist action for climate justice program in Eastern Africa by enhancing and leverage the capacity of millions of women and girls in the region by building their resilience to climate and disaster risks, mitigate climate change, and address loss and damage, including through provision of quality education, community-based cooperative models and land rights and tenure security
