About Women Deliver: Women Deliver is a global feminist advocacy organization that demands the full suite of sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) for all people, everywhere. Led by and representative of feminist movements in low- and middle-income countries, we focus on adolescent girls — both in terms of our impact and commitment to putting young people in the driver’s seat of decision-making.
We create spaces for collective action on SHRH and gender equality, championing and supporting youth advocacy, and convening likeminded organizations. In everything we do, we aim to shift power into the hands of those closest to and living the challenges that girls face. Their expertise and lived experiences are vital to our collective struggle.

About Women Deliver 's Communications 
When it feels like every day starts with a bad news story, our communications remind our audience that hope is real and change is possible. We reinforce the fact that progress toward justice and gender equality can and does happen every day when feminists and feminist organizations come together to address harmful norms, laws, and policies worldwide. We are angry about injustice and recognize that change takes time, but remain positive about our collective power to drive progress.
Jargon has no place in our messaging. We’re focused on making all of our communications as easily understandable and transparent as possible, and never pretending to be something that we’re not in the lifelong process of being antiracist and anticolonialist in everything we do. Our communications get loud about inequity, while also focusing on how we can work together to come up with lasting solutions.
While the issues that we’re working to address are serious, our communications, particularly to younger audiences, are funny, fresh, and current. We stay in the know about what’s trending, and leverage popular culture to capture people’s attention and increase their interest in gender equality and SRHR.
