Around the world, communities and organizations are developing strategies to confront the weaponization of gender and build a future rooted in belonging and pluralistic democracy. In this series of conversations, we speak with individuals and groups at the forefront of this work. Each interview offers an inside look at how they navigate the political and cultural terrain — what approaches they use, what they've learned, and what gives them optimism for continued action.

Some of the most important work happening today rarely makes headlines. This annual report captures how, in 2025, we pursued our vision to ensure that every person and community has the power to help shape the structures that shape their lives.
