There is growing evidence that supporting women’s groups, networks, organisations and the women’s movement is an effective way to bring about gender equality. Pacific Women has established the Fiji Women’s Fund (the Fund) to provide $10.5 million of flexible funding over five years to women’s groups, networks and women-focused civil society organisations, with a particular focus on reaching women in remote, rural areas and other marginalised women. The aim of the Fund, the first in the Pacific region, is to become an independently funded and managed women’s fund by the end of 2022.
