Channel Grant: Channel made a grant to support the Charlotte Bunch Women’s Human Rights Strategic Opportunities Fund at the Center for Women’s Global Leadership (CWGL) at Rutgers University through the Rutgers University Foundation.

The Charlotte Bunch Women’s Human Rights Strategic Opportunities Fund will be located in the Rutgers University Foundation and will allow CWGL to annually support initiatives that are of strategic significance in seizing important political opportunities for the advancement of women’s human rights globally. The fund is intended to be utilized, for example, to organize strategic conversations among diverse players in the advocacy for women’s human rights; to finance research and/or writing on critical issues related to women’s human rights; or to support women’s human rights defenders.  It is intended to have the flexibility to remain innovative and respond to fluid, diverse, and evolving needs in the women’s human rights movement.
