We are an alliance of US feminists collaborating to advance human rights and gender equity for women and girls worldwide.
- We engage in joint advocacy at the UN Commission on the Status of Women (CSW).
- We research and exchange information on issues of vital interest to women.
- We promote the principle of women’s human rights in embodied in:
- CEDAW (UN Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women)
- The Beijing Platform for Action
- We advocate for greater gender equality at home and abroad with the US State Department, US Mission to the UN, the White House and the US Congress.
Through this collaboration, we hope to have a larger, louder, stronger voice by leveraging our collective knowledge and capabilities.
As US feminists, we stand in solidarity with the world’s women.
- We deplore the erosion of gender equity and human right in recent years.
- We recognize that many women face extraordinary challenges due to their race, ethnicity, age, income level, religion, disabilities, sexual and gender identity, marital status, geographical location and climate change.
- Today millions of women and girls are also denied the basic rights of access to:
- Education
- Equal pay
- Reproductive choices
We are committed to a just world where every person’s human rights are affirmed, recognized, and respected.
