Women and girls around the entire world are suffering from the same problem: they do not have equal rights. They do not even have basic rights.
They do not have safety, freedom, access to education, bodily autonomy, or control over their own destiny. Instead, they are oppressed, harmed, sold, denied education, imprisoned, raped, and killed.
But we believe in a better world. We believe in the power of film as a means of achieving gender equality. We believe in the power of women, coming together, to push for change.
The 49% is women-led 501(c)3 non-profit that produces and curates films and events around the world’s most urgent global women’s stories,
but we can't do any of it without you.
With your generous support, we are able to aid and bolster the amazing work of experienced activists doing impactful, courageous work on the ground. We are making known the connective tissue between the all-too-familiar women’s rights abuses around the world.
- Using the medium of film, we give women’s rights activists the power and platform to raise their voices across continents and share their courageous stories. Our films confront audiences with the realities faced by womankind and ask them to take action.
- We host international public and private gatherings of women’s rights activists to educate audiences about global women’s issues, foster necessary dialogue about a way forward, and strengthen the bonds between movements by uncovering common ground and shared experiences.
- We galvanize our diverse and growing network of supporters using our films and gatherings to ACT, to ballast the international pressure put upon systems and nations oppressing women and to push for lasting change.
Our work will not stop until we live in a world where women are free, where women are powerful, where women are equal.
Your donation is absolutely crucial to helping us get there.
