2018 was our first year of operations as a regional women's fund supporting women and non-binary human rights defenders and their organisations across Asia and the Pacific in times of need and/or emergencies. We were able to reach grantees across several countries and support their work in a manner that reflects our commitment to adhere to feminist principles of caring and support. We would like to place on record our gratitude to our donors, board of directors across Asia and the Pacific, sister funds, partners and grantees for being part of our journey to becoming a truly feminist fund.
