The Renewed Women’s Voice and Leadership (WVL) Bangladesh (2024-2029) project will support the most vulnerable women and communities of Bangladesh by providing capacity building and multi-year funding to selected women’s rights organizations (WROs). It will also support networking and alliance-building among WROs to influence policy and decision-makers more effectively. The project will scale up outreach activities, support mass advocacy campaigns, and strengthen the operations of these WROs. It will target a wider range of WROs addressing themes such as prevention of sexual and gender-based violence, sexual and reproductive health and rights, marginalization and exclusion, safe migration, human rights, and social movements to protect women’s rights. This project will be national in scope and expects to reach 70,000 women directly and 130,000 indirectly.
