Unit Summary
The Global Programs (GP) unit manages the Foundation’s grantmaking to invest in sexual and reproductive health and rights around the world. At the core of our strategy is the central tenet that our funding will lead to sustainable change: we want our funding to help transform systems and strengthen the organizations and institutions that will outlive our grantmaking so that women and girls will continue to receive services when our funding comes to an end. GP’s work focuses particularly in Sub-Saharan African countries and the region.
