Who We Are

South Asia Women Foundation India (SAWF IN) is a national women’s fund in India. Our core purpose is to ensure a continuous and committed flow of resources, both financial and non-financial) to support initiatives led by and working towards advancing the rights of women and gender non-binary persons, discriminated due to caste, class, ethnicity and other forms of marginalisation.

SAWF IN envisions a world where women, girls, and gender non-binary persons realise their constitutional rights and freedoms to equality and non-discrimination. Therefore, we believe in advocating and influencing resource agencies and philanthropists (individuals, institutions, CSRs, and others) to commit long-term, continuous and evidence-based support towards initiatives facilitating transformation in gender norms, and practices and thereby affecting underlying power structures.

Raising Funds For

SAWF IN's core objective is to support organizations and initiatives to scale their strategies for the social and economic empowerment of women and trans persons. While we support the agenda prioritised by grassroots groups of marginalised women and trans persons, our current grants and fellowships on women and trans communities span across the priority areas of (a) economic justice and enhancing women’s economic participation; and (b) advancing access to legal justice. To achieve this, SAWF IN uses a two-pronged approach:
- Giving small grants to grassroot women and trans persons-led organisations and groups working on social justice, creating community support network, providing legal support, and advocating for their rights and dignity.
- Offering fellowships to women and trans lawyers and grassroots practitioners and experts to enhance access legal justice, economic and environmental justice.
Funds raised through this fundraiser will be utilised towards these programmes of SAWF IN, in enabling a gender transformative change at the grassroots.
