● Affiliates
Our team of short-term consultants and research associates forms a dynamic and collaborative force that contributes to the Gender and Justice Unit’s impactful work. With a shared commitment to gender equality, justice, and empowerment, we strive to make a lasting difference in the lives of those whose voices have been marginalised.
● Our Oversight Committee
The GJU is governed by an Oversight Committee composed of six members with expertise in Human Rights Law, advocacy, research and development and finance. The oversight committee has been instrumental in guiding us through the challenges of the past year. Their unwavering commitment to our mission, strategic vision and effective governance has been invaluable in helping us achieve our goals.
● Partners & Funders
Meaningful partnerships are at the heart of our programming, and we recognise that the road to meaningful access to justice for all is paved by the collaborative steps we take. We take this opportunity to appreciate every organisation that has contributed to our impact.
