SEE ORGANIZATION'S FULL MISSION STATEMENT IN SCHEDULE O. false false 2145162 15718 All of our work, across our teams, feeds into the three overarching workstreams: Collective Action for Change, Emerging Leaders for Change, and Convening for Change programs. For instance: Multilateral Engagement - Global Policy and Advocacy: Our overarching approach to global policy and advocacy is to identify and leverage key policy windows to drive meaningful progress on gender equality, including by influencing governments, convening diverse stakeholders, and amplifying the work of grassroots partners and Emerging Leaders. Women Deliver continuously engages stakeholders, decision-makers, influencers, and those outside the community of already engaged champions to advocate for improved policies and programs and increased financial and political commitments for advancing gender equality and SRHR. We leverage our convenings, communications, and advocacy platforms as spaces to facilitate more inclusive decision-making. We also advise and influence governments, multilaterals, and private sector decision-makers. For more effective advocacy for gender equality and SRHR, we develop and promote user-centered methodologies for strengthening capacity and knowledge sharing. We create spaces for connection and peer-to-peer learning, reach advocates with diverse experiences and identities, and support their ability to influence at different levels of decision- and policy-making. Finally, our advocacy harnesses the most rigorous and compelling evidence. We collate and translate the latest data and information into clear-sighted messages to build the case for prioritizing gender equality and the health and rights of girls and women. And when the data do not exist, we call for more attention to overlooked topics and partner to generate new evidence. We focus on what works, using advocacy grounded in evidence to shift policies and drive investments. 911348 Convenings for Change - The Women Deliver 2026 Conference (WD2026): Looking ahead, Women Deliver is preparing to host the Women Deliver 2026 Conference (WD2026) in Narrm (Melbourne), Australia from 27-30 April 2026. WD2026 will build on the successes and lessons of WD2023 and reflect our deepened commitment to equity, accessibility, and feminist co-leadership. WD2026 will be our most intersectional and accessible convening yet - designed to bring together diverse actors across movements, sectors, and regions to co-create solutions that drive gender equality forward. The Conference will prioritize meaningful engagement with historically marginalized communities, including youth, First Nations peoples, LGBTQIA+ advocates, and people with disabilities, ensuring that their lived experiences and leadership are at the center of dialogue and decision-making. In line with our mission to elevate feminist leadership and shift power to those closest to the issues, WD2026 will be developed in co-creation with regional and global partners through a participatory process grounded in shared values and local realities. We are investing in hybrid programming, multilingual access, comprehensive safeguarding measures, and regional consultations to ensure that WD2026 drives long-term impact. The Conference will serve as a global platform to accelerate progress on SRHR, climate justice, feminist financing, and other critical priorities, and will create space for advocates to connect, mobilize, and influence policies and investments that shape the future of gender equality. Through WD2026, Women Deliver is reaffirming its role as a convener, connector, and catalyst for collective action. 885597 4500 Youth Engagement - Meaningful Youth Engagement and Youth Leaders Progam: Gender advocacy and collective action must center adolescent girls and youth, especially those with marginalized identities, as designers, experts, and leaders, alongside traditional decision-makers and powerholders, in all gender equality advocacy spaces. The Emerging Leaders for Change Program builds on more than a decade of impact through the Women Deliver Young Leaders Program, focusing on youth-led advocacy in East Africa. This new initiative supports young advocates aged 15-29 in Ethiopia, Kenya, Rwanda, Tanzania, and Uganda who are driving change across issues like SRHR, climate justice, education, and economic empowerment. The program connects them with training, mentorship, and regional peer-to-peer learning opportunities while equipping them to influence policy, mobilize communities, and shape feminist agendas locally and globally. Through this cohort-based model, Women Deliver is investing in the next generation of changemakers who are reimagining and reshaping the future of gender equality in their regions. 3942107 true true false false false false false false false false true false false true false true true false false false true true true false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 10 0 true 19 true false false false false false false false false false false false false X 10 9 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true true true false AL AK AR CA CO CT DC FL GA HI IL KS KY ME MD MA MI MN MS NH NJ NM NY NC ND OH OK OR PA RI SC TN UT VA WA WV WI X X MALIHA KHAN 6466959100 588 BROADWAY SUITE 210 New York NY 10012 X MALIHA KHAN President & CEO 35.0 0.0 X X 342746 0 35466 Kimberley Lufkin Director, Communications 35.0 0.0 X 156809 0 32684 Fauzia Dawood Director, External Relations 35.0 0.0 X 162533 0 21322 Julia Fan Sr. Manager, Youth Engagement 35.0 0.0 X 118879 0 37389 Eleanor Blomstrom Sr. Manager, Policy & advocacy 35.0 0.0 X 117326 0 38045 Nicholas Maistros Sr. Manager, Finance and Admin 35.0 0.0 X 130048 0 24047 PHUMZILE MLAMBO-NGCUKA CHAIR 1.0 0.0 X X 0 0 0 TULIKA SRIVASTAVA VICE CHAIR 1.0 0.0 X X 0 0 0 WALLACE D'SOUZA TREASURER 1.0 0.0 X X 0 0 0 SIVANANTHI THANENTHIRAN BOARD MEMBER 1.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 GEORGIANA EPURE BOARD MEMBER 1.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 HELEN CLARK BOARD MEMBER 1.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 DAKSHITHA WICKREMARATHNE BOARD MEMBER 1.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 DR CARMEN BARROSO BOARD MEMBER 0.2 0.0 X 0 0 0 NORHAN BADER BOARD MEMBER 0.2 0.0 X 0 0 0 1028341 0 188953 9 false true false Laura Haylock 314 LACASSE AVE OTTAWA ONTARIO CA K1L 7A6 CONSULTant SERVICES 132600 Samson Tesfaye Woldetensaie PO BOX 62546 ADDIS ABABA 0 ET consultant Services 132000 2 1735328 1735328 0 10176 10176 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 OTHER INCOME 900099 2188 2188 2188 1747692 2188 0 10176 X 0 0 20218 20218 0 378212 340390 18911 18911 0 1853494 1484956 240470 128068 131279 103878 17075 10326 255553 207685 30685 17183 178078 145324 20888 11866 0 32226 30379 1178 669 48800 46002 1784 1014 0 0 0 979711 923543 35819 20349 1096 894 129 73 119498 97520 14015 7963 255473 208484 29965 17024 0 0 244654 205306 25093 14255 0 29708 24244 3484 1980 0 0 104166 85007 12218 6941 22395 18277 2626 1492 4654561 3942107 454340 258114 X 3458573 592218 3093108 1688284 186661 718070 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 5409 7091 41541 41541 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 165836 256457 6909587 3262120 827395 203260 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 116463 0 943858 203260 X 4873790 1862373 1091939 1196487 5965729 3058860 6909587 3262120 -2906869 X false true X true false X 2375612 4322714 6559547 11710469 1735328 26703670 0 0 2375612 4322714 6559547 11710469 1735328 26703670 7024101 19679569 5534 445 3620 11012 10176 30787 0 0 9567 99 38515 2188 50369 26784826 4300880 0.73473 0.79503 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 41541 41541 0 0 DEPOSITS 256457 256457 0 0 X 1747692 1747692 1747692 4654561 4654561 4654561 Schedule D, Part X, Line 2 Women Deliver is a not-for-profit corporation exempt from income taxes under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.

("Women Deliver") is a global feminist advocacy organization with a clear mission: to ensure that every self-identifying girl and woman has control over her body and life. We believe sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) are the cornerstone of bodily autonomy and have convened?gender equality advocates from all levels of power for almost two decades to advance this cause. While we are best known for our convening power, our expertise extends beyond the Women Deliver Conferences to global advocacy for gender equality. We have extensive experience in navigating and leveraging global spaces, in equitable youth engagement and co-leadership, including resourcing young people working for change in their communities, countries, and regions, and in supporting and strengthening coalitions and collective movements. We accomplish this via three work streams: Our Collective Action for Change Program harnesses the transformative power of alliances, partnerships, and coalitions to advance gender equality and SRHR and safeguard all girlswomen's rights, particularly during adolescence. We form and collaborate in long-standing feminist coalitions and alliances to advance SRHR and safeguard bodily autonomy, particularly in relation to three issue areas: 1) ensuring gender justice and SRHR in the face of the climate crisis; 2) advancing SRHR in universal health coverage (UHC); and 3) countering the anti-rights movement globally. Our Emerging Leaders for Change Program is a two-year leadership program that supports passionate young activists with the resources, platforms, connections, and trainings necessary to amplify and achieve their advocacy goals. Women Deliver, with its strong commitment to both gender equality and SRHR, has a strong history of equitable youth engagement and co-leadership. Our Convenings for Change Program consists of three key pillars that harness our expertise in convening and co-creating inclusive advocacy spaces. These pillars are: 1) leading the planning and delivery of the Women Deliver Conference as a platform for collective action; 2) shaping global agendas through regional dialogues, digital convenings, and thought leadership; and 3) facilitating intersectional, cross-movement collaboration to advance gender equality and SRHR, with a focus on adolescent girls. As an advocacy organization, Women Deliver sees communications - including traditional and digital media - as an invaluable tool to build the capacity of other advocates and move the needle on gender equality. We share stories, hard facts, and evidence-based research to drive action for gender equality, keeping the health and rights, and particularly the SRHR of adolescent girls, at the top of the agenda and at the heart of the conversation. The goal of our communications is clear: to curate conversations that drive gender equality forward in unprecedented ways, whether through face-to-face interactions or across digital platforms. Specifically, we are committed to shaping a future where our narrative, language, and brand not only reflect our feminist and anti-racist values but also actively contribute to dismantling the systems that oppress girls and women. To achieve this, we will leverage our technical expertise, brand influence, and enduring partnerships with feminist and youth advocates around the world.
