Advocacy Grants for Former Women Political Prisoners
This Advocacy Grant is for the women who survived—and continue to resist.
Designed for former women political prisoners from Myanmar, these mini grants provide flexible, rapid support to help reclaim space, strengthen safety, and sustain political agency. Whether it’s for rent, therapy, digital security, legal assistance, or producing a podcast—this grant is an act of solidarity. A recognition of your pain, your resilience, and your power.
Because healing is resistance. And your survival is revolutionary. This is not just about
funding. It’s about building a world where former prisoners are not forgotten—but resourced,
respected, and re-empowered.
This is your space. Your story. Your voice.
WHY APPLY
Specifically designed for former women political prisoners from Myanmar, these flexible, fast-response grants support the work of healing, safety, and reclaiming political power.
Whether it’s covering rent, accessing therapy, enhancing digital security, securing legal counsel, or launching a podcast—this fund exists to back your agency, not prescribe it.
This is feminist solidarity in action; a political commitment to resourcing women who continue
to resist even after release.
Because healing is not a pause in the struggle—it’s part of it.
Because your survival demands more than recognition—it demands reinvestment.
Because we refuse to build a future without you in it.
This is your space. Your power. Your terms.
