Voices from the Frontline

29 Sep 2022 - 12:00 by michelle.foster

Rosa’s Voices from the Frontline fund offers one-year grants of between £500 and £7,000 to support campaigning and influencing work that enables women and girls to use their voice to achieve fundingchange.

With the rising cost of living and global pandemic worsening inequalities and threatening to push back women’s and girls’ rights, collective action is needed now more than ever.

There is a critical need for funding for women’s and girls’ organisations to deliver activism and campaigning, particularly at the grassroots, and to raise awareness of the issues they face. This enables learning, awareness-raising, momentum-building, and campaigning all rooted in the strength of collective action.

Voices from the frontline will fund the broad range of activity that women’s and girls’ organisations undertake in order to raise women’s voices and challenge inequality, including:

  • Campaigning for changes in policy and laws including activities such as petitions, social media campaigns and lobbying
  • Influencing community leaders and power holders about issues that affect women in a particular place or community
  • Gathering evidence or producing tools and reports which enable women and women’s organisations to campaign for change
  • Mentoring or training for women on how to participate in public life and influence social policy
  • Activities and workshops for groups of women, giving them space to identify and understand the injustices they face and to develop the confidence to speak up against them.
  • Video and media campaigns about specific issues facing women
  • Training activists in campaigning, advocacy, lobbying or public speaking
  • Hosting workshops, events and conferences that educate and influence wider society
