Mission

Urgent Action Fund for Feminist Activism partners with frontline feminist movements to support women, trans and non-binary activists striving to create a more just and equitable world.

About

Urgent Action Fund for Feminist Activism (known previously as Urgent Action Fund for Women’s Human Rights) was founded in 1997 to deliver funds quickly to frontline feminists and their movements in moments of urgent crisis and unexpected opportunity. This model would come to be known as rapid response. Activists across the globe reached out to Urgent Action Fund as their movement realities required greater responsiveness and flexibility, something that could not be met by more traditional funders.
