What is Fondo de Mujeres del Sur?

Fondo de Mujeres del Sur (FMS) is a foundation that supports organisations that promote the rights of women in all their diversity in Southern Latin America.

FMS was founded on October 12th, 2007, as part of the regional women movement. We are  members of the Women´s Funds Alliance from Latin America, made up of eight funds from across the continent.

At FMS, we support grassroots initiatives, organisations and networks of women in all their diversity, who work to achieve transformative results towards gender, ethnic-racial and social justice. Our goal is to strengthen, from a democratic and human rights approach.
