The largest recurring event of its kind, the Forum brings together close to 2,000 women's rights leaders and activists from around the world to strategize, network, celebrate, and learn in a highly charged atmosphere that fosters deep discussions and sustained personal and professional growth. 745153 Resourcing Women's Rights ("RWR"): For over a decade, the organization has asked the question - "Where is the Money for Womens Rights"? Consistently, the answer is that there is very limited funding available for the transformative, long-term, and political work of womens rights organizations. The organization is focused on encouraging funders and global policy frameworks to demonstrate increased commitment to resourcing womens rights and gender justice. By bridging the gap between funders and activists, the organization encourages dialogue to shape funding decisions, collaborative funding and resource mobilization, and pinpoints the strengths and gaps in the funding landscape. 526404 Women's Human Rights Defenders ("WHRD") is a program that responds to the escalation of violence and attacks on women's human rights defenders ("WHRDs") which has brought greater urgency to the need to develop more effective and gender-sensitive systems of responding, tracking and following up on these cases, as well as increased access to protection mechanisms, justice, and security for WHRDs experiencing such violence. The organization and allies are working with WHRDs in Mesoamerica, the Middle East, and North Africa by engaging in campaigns to respond to the alarming increase in violence against women in their regions. 2033945 7640221 true true false false false false false false false false true false false true false false true false false true true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true X 7 0 true 7 true false true CA MX false false false false false false false false false X 13 12 false false false false true true false true true false false false true false false true true true true false CA X CHRISTINE HAYHURST 4165943773 215 SPADINA AVENUE SUITE 150 Toronto ON CA M5T 2C7 Lydia Alpizar Duran Executive Director 37.5 0.0 X X 138932 0 0 Cindy Clark Director of Org.
