Application Deadline: 14 September, 2024
Applications are now open for the 2024/2025 Gender Justice Accelerator. SAHR is calling for applications from civil society leaders seizing an opportunity to change law and policy, or working to implement law and policies at the local level to end Sexual and Gender-Based Violence (SGBV). The Accelerator aims to amplify the knowledge and skills of civil society leaders contributing to litigation, law, or policy reform and implementation to end SGBV.Â
The SAHR Gender Justice Accelerator is a twelve-month mentorship program that prepares civil society leaders (Fellows) with the skills and tools they need to meaningfully participate in SGBV law and policy-making and implementation.
The Accelerator fosters transformation through a comprehensive framework, comprising legal mentorship, workshops, and peer collaboration. Fellows emerge equipped with a roadmap for their local policy and legal initiatives, professional skills, and enduring connections with fellow advocates.
