More about the AmplifyChange

AmplifyChange is a multi-donor challenge fund to support civil society advocacy for sexual and reproductive health and rights. They are a fund which aims to empower young people, men and women to realise their sexual and reproductive rights.

Vision

AmplifyChange’s vision is to contribute to securing universal recognition of sexual and reproductive health and rights as human rights, enabling women, men and young people to realise their full potential in safe and supportive environments.

AmplifyChange strengthens the social movement for change by providing support to civil society and community-based organisations working in countries where the needs are greatest, in particular Sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia.

AmplifyChange provides grants to directly fund local civil society organisations (CSOs) that advocate for and promote better policy and action on neglected sexual and reproductive health and rights issues.
