FRIDA is proud to partner and collaborate with change-making activists, groups and collectives. In these publications, we acknowledge, celebrate, and honor the achievements and impact of the young feminist movement around the globe. We seek to build knowledge around young feminist organizing and all FRIDA publications are a signifcant step towards #ChangingTheGame around the field.
This year marked 15 years of FRIDA! A young feminist fund conceived by young feminists who boldly envisioned a dream and brought it to fruition. We don’t use the word boldly lightly. While the ideas and values – of young feminist leadership, participatory grantmaking, co-leadership models, letting the movement decide – that FRIDA was built on are commonplace in some spaces, 15 years ago these were really pushing the envelope. And as FRIDA continues to dream radical notions of feminist grantmaking into the future, the vision, bravery and open-heartedness of those who created FRIDA remains with us.
This document is a a deep dive into our work, our organisational journey and a reminder of why funding young feminist movements is more urgent now, than ever before.
In 2024, FRIDA supported 203 grantee partners by providing both core grants and accompaniment support to young feminist groups across six geographical regions. FRIDA’s support beyond grant making not only contributes to the sustainability of each grantee partner in all the organic and holistic ways they need, but also supports them to stay connected with broader social movements.
With your help FRIDA supports and incubates the next generation of youth social justice movements and human rights defenders.
