What Zonta does

We want every woman in the world to be able to reach her full potential. We want a world where women have access to all resources on the same terms as men and where no woman is afraid of violence. In order for this to become a reality, we have a close collaboration with the UN and work with international projects for equality and human rights, with a focus on women's and girls' health, education and the economy.

Zonta arbetar med internationella projekt för jämställdhet och mänskliga rättigheter, med fokus på kvinnor och flickors hälsa, utbildning och ekonomi.

We support women and girls

Zonta provides financial support to several projects for human rights and gender equality, often in collaboration with various UN agencies. The projects we are involved in are, among other things, about promoting women's health, education and economic situation. We also work with projects to abolish gender-based violence, child marriage and human trafficking.
