Invest in local women leaders as agents of change to sponsor development projects.
Create collaborative models among local and international organizations to maximize efficiency and impact.
Collaborate with local leaders, NGOs, and other global partners to map specific evidence-based interventions through interdisciplinary research and analysis.

Community Story
This nonprofit does amazing work. It is run by experts in law, medicine, and economics, who look at world development problems holistically to produce thoughtful, workable solutions. Everyone I worked with and met at VF earned my utmost respect for their passion and intelligence. My time as a legal intern could not have been better spent: I learned through observation and practice how a truly effective nonprofit works. I highly recommend any association with this organization.
