Meet our newest GFC partners!
We’re excited to welcome five new partners to our global network of change-makers. Based in Croatia, Kyrgyzstan, North Macedonia, Serbia, and Thailand, these organizations are promoting girls’ health and rights, supporting migrant and refugee children, and helping young people live free from violence and exploitation. Read more about their work in this blog.
Trust truly local leadership
As governments, development organizations, and other funders grapple with how to support children during and after the pandemic, GFC President and CEO John Hecklinger argues that they must provide grassroots groups with the necessary resources to continue their vital work. In this op-ed, John explains why it’s so important to ensure that local organizations can continue to operate and work toward long-term systemic change.
