White Ribbon Alliance UK

Who we are

White Ribbon Alliance UK prioritises the eradication of gender-based violence and the promotion of gender equity in sexual and reproductive health and rights, especially for marginalised and underrepresented communities. We enable access to unbiased and evidenced-based resources, education, and support for women, girls, and trans individuals. We influence healthcare professionals, hospital systems, policy makers, and the public to centre the human rights of women, girls and trans, intersex and non-binary people throughout the lifecycle of their sexual health needs. 

Leveraging our Ask Listen Act methodology, the following tactics are used to deliver our strategy: 

• Creating resources: Unbiased information based upon quantitative and qualitative research which is delivered in print, digital, video, and/or audio formats. 

• Providing education: Training, consultation, workshops, mentorship, and community/peer support services. 

• Campaigning: Awareness-raising, marketing, protesting, and otherwise involving the public by mobilising their support on a particular issue, or to influence public attitudes, including activities aimed at ensuring that an existing law is observed  

• Advocacy:  Securing support for, or opposition to, a change in the law or government or local authority policy, which would generally be considered as political in nature by the public. 

• Partnerships: Working with organisations or individuals with whom the charity will create strategic or tactical alliances to advance progress in delivering our strategy. Partners may own all, or part of, the tactics or actions required for specific pieces of work.
