Women Thrive Worldwide believes that empowering
women is the most effective long-term solution and key
to ending global poverty. It is, therefore, a core part of
our mission to raise the voices of women from around the
world before U.S. and global policymakers, and to build
women’s own capacity to be advocates.
The Global Partnerships Network is a program of
Women Thrive Worldwide. We are NOT a grantmaking organization.
Benefits of Joining the Global
Partnerships Network
Women Thrive’s partnerships with local organizations
around the world are crucial and animate all aspects of
our work. We believe women in developing countries
know best about their own needs and priorities, and
what we hear from them informs our entire advocacy
agenda. We work in partnership with them and highlight
their experiences so policymakers can get a local, on-theground perspective of how U.S. and international policies
are affecting women. Our partners also help us track and
monitor the impact of international policy change on a
country and community level.
Joining the Global Partnerships Network is free. Here
are just a few of the benefits you’ll receive by joining the
Global Partnerships Network (GPN):
Gain more visibility. Using our website, global
partnerships newsletter, blog, and/or social media
platforms, we can work with you to increase your
organization’s profile internationally.
Increase your access to information-sharing and
other organizations. Through our network, we
can connect you with an organization doing similar
work and/or share information with or about your
organization, in order to advance your work to
improve the lives of women and girls in your home
country and around the world.
About the Global Partnerships
Network (GPN)
The GPN is a dynamic new network that connects
organizations from around the world working to advance
women, so we can learn from each other, and collaborate
to forward common goals. We hope to be a conduit for
organizations and individuals committed to gender equality,
to share their experiences on how to best address the needs
of and empower women and girls living in poverty around
the world. Members of the GPN are diverse, including local
and civil society organizations; service-providers; national
and regional networks and coalitions; social enterprises and
small businesses; advocacy-oriented organizations; researchfocused groups; and more.
Promote your work through collaboration and
advocacy. We work hard to collaborate with our
partners by providing feedback, toolkits, guidebooklets, and/or connections, as well as notifying
them of potential funding or capacity development
opportunities. These tools and opportunities can
help promote and advance your cause locally,
nationally and internationally. Whether you use our
Advocacy Training Guide in your country, or you
provide us with input on a U.S. or international
policy or program, we will do what we can to make
sure your voice is heard by policymakers.
