Disabled women deserve justice and equal rights. They face high risks of violence, discrimination, and exclusion, with laws often failing to recognise or protect their rights. In Bangladesh, the Women with Disabilities Development Foundation (WDDF) is fighting to change this, pushing for legal reforms that ensure safety, dignity, and equality for all. Your donations sustain WDDF’s fight to break legal barriers and demand justice. Together, we can create a world where every woman is safe and valued. 🔗 See the impact of your support in ‘CHANGE THAT LASTS: 40 YEARS OF IMPACT’ and how WDDF is driving change for disabled women in Bangladesh. https://lnkd.in/d-dJmXXF #DisabilityJustice #LegalReform #WDDF #FeministAction #MamaCash

🙌 Thanks to YOU, since 1984 Mama Cash provided over €26.9 million to organisations fighting gender-based violence in 162 countries! This is what happens when we are in unity: real change and protections for those who are most marginalised and targeted. But progress made is under threat. Anti-rights movements rising everywhere in the world are imposing regressive policies, undermining civil rights and depleting essential funding for social and gender protections for women, girls, trans, and intersex people. Feminist activists need our support more than ever. 👉Help us raise funds through donations https://bit.ly/4eFSsMc or start a fundraiser. https://bit.ly/3Oqs12i #FeministFunding #FeministFund #FeministPhilanthropy #ShiftThePower #fundLBTQI #MamaCash40Years
