Equality in Action : our Volunteer Cooperation Program
To build an equal future together, we must take action today. The Equality in Action program provides support to 90 partners in 14 different countries to improve the lives of local people. We work with organizations that are in the best position to understand the needs of their communities. Together, we are fighting inequality by protecting the rights of women and girls, combating gender-based violence, and promoting gender justice.
