Our Impact

Since 1992, our international network of lawyers, activists, and supporters has held governments responsible for ending legal inequality, sex trafficking, sexual violence & harmful practices, such as female genital mutilation (FGM) & child marriage.

Women’s rights have come a long way in the last thirty years, and we’re proud of our part in that.

Our impact in 2023


At Equality Now, we believe that legal equality is critical for achieving gender equality and creating a better world for everyone. During 2023:

  • We improved access to justice for 39.2 million women and girls worldwide, by using our exemplary legal skill and
    acumen to help change 14 laws in 12 countries.
  • We significantly developed our global reach and influence, while also remaining deeply rooted within the places and
    communities we serve.
  • We worked as an active member of 29 international and regional coalitions, alongside over 3,000 other individuals and organizations around the world.
  • We continued to galvanize the global women’s rights movement by resourcing and supporting the work of our partners in every part of the world.
