Women Working Worldwide
Women Working Worldwide is a UK-based nonprofit organisation dedicated to supporting and empowering women workers in global supply chains. Registered as a charity under number 1119101, the organisation collaborates closely with grassroots partner organisations around the world to advance women's rights and improve working conditions.
History and Structure
Founded in 1987 as a company limited by guarantee, Women Working Worldwide transitioned into a registered charity in 2007. It is headquartered in Manchester, United Kingdom, where it continues to coordinate its international efforts.
Mission and Activities
The core mission of Women Working Worldwide is to enable women workers in global supply chains to claim their labour rights and secure decent wages. The organisation achieves this through a combination of advocacy, training, research, and capacity-building initiatives targeted at women workers and their communities.
The charity works primarily by partnering with grassroots organisations in various countries, supporting these local groups to empower women at the frontline of supply chains ranging from agriculture to manufacturing. Through these partnerships, Women Working Worldwide provides resources and expertise that help women understand and exercise their rights in often challenging economic environments.
Impact and Recognition
Women Working Worldwide has been acknowledged by peer organisations for its sustained impact in advancing women's workplace rights. Oxfam Novib, for example, has noted the charity's ability to "punch above its weight," reflecting the significant influence it achieves relative to its size.
The organisation's work spans multiple sectors and regions, addressing systemic inequality and fostering economic justice for women workers worldwide.
Women Working Worldwide embodies a focused approach to women's empowerment by linking advocacy and grassroots support, making it a notable player in the international women's rights and labour rights movements.

Cuts to aid & equality budgets aren’t just numbers; they’re a strategic rollback of human rights. ODI’s piece warns that hollowing out funding lets anti‑rights groups fill the vacuum, imperilling democracies worldwide. Investing in gender equality is a security strategy. https://odi.org/en/insights/theres-not-enough-money-so-why-spend-it-on-gender-equality-and-justice/ #FundHerFuture #GenderJustice #AidPolicy (fb)
Brands just bought themselves another year—women workers didn’t. Last month, the European Parliament has pushed back the start date of the Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive. Every month of delay means women in factories and fields wait longer for living wages and safe conditions. (fb)
