The International Women’s Media Foundation (IWMF) breaks barriers for women and nonbinary journalists to promote a diverse and representative news media.
The IWMF is the only organization that offers emergency support, safety training, global reporting opportunities, and funding for both staff reporters and freelancers, all specifically tailored for women and nonbinary people.
Journalists under threat and survivors of attacks can receive funds from IWMF’s Emergency Fund for help with legal support, medical bills, relocation, and access to trauma-informed resources. Last year, the IWMF provided more than $382,000 in emergency assistance funding to more than 194 journalists in need, from 34 countries.
IWMF’s Emergency Fund is supported by the Golden Globe Foundation.
