2025 | UN Trust Fund

UN Trust Fund-supported initiatives enabled 74,300 women and girls to access specialist support services; supported 581,198 women and girls to access information, goods and services to prevent or respond to violence; strengthened 738 institutions to improve survivor-centred service provision; and facilitated access to justice for 7,960 women and girls in cases of violence. The portfolio also prioritized women and girls facing intersecting forms of discrimination and exclusion. In 2025, funded initiatives directly reached over 39,000 women survivors of violence, 12,727 refugee and internally displaced women and girls, 7,444 women and girls with disabilities, 8,828 Indigenous women and girls, and 2,736 lesbian, bisexual and transgender women and girls, and in 2025 alone nearly 100,000 cases of sexual and gender-based violence against women and girls were reported or referred to local state service providers through support provided by the UN Trust Fund grantee partners. Through support from Wellspring Philanthropic, the UN Trust Fund also initiated a series of briefs on practice-based knowledge on essential services for women and girls, highlighting the key role of civil society organizations as service providers across the humanitarian development peace nexus. 

Overall, these efforts improved access to justice, protection and support for survivors, strengthened system-wide coordination, and reinforced survivor-centred approaches at scale across diverse contexts.
