UN Women is the United Nations agency for women's rights, gender equality and women's empowerment. A global champion ForAllWomenAndGirls, UN Women was established to accelerate progress on meeting their needs worldwide. UN Women supports UN Member States as they set global standards for achieving gender equality, and works with governments and civil society to design laws, policies, programmes and services needed to implement these standards. It stands behind women’s equal participation in all aspects of life, focusing on five priority areas: increasing women’s leadership and participation; ending violence against women; engaging women in all aspects of peace and security processes; enhancing women’s economic empowerment; and making gender equality central to national development planning and budgeting. UN Women also coordinates and promotes the UN system’s work in advancing gender equality.

CARE International is a leading global humanitarian confederation fighting poverty and social injustice across more than 100 countries. For nearly 80 years, we have worked alongside communities to create lasting, transformative change through locally-led solutions. At the heart of our mission is the empowerment of women and girls. The reason for this is simple: we cannot overcome poverty and injustice until all people can access equal rights and opportunities. When women are equipped with the right resources and opportunities, they become powerful catalysts for change, helping entire families and communities break free from poverty. Join us in our mission to create a world of hope, inclusion, and social justice, where poverty has been overcome and all people live in dignity and security.
