Campaign for change

At ActionAid we stand with women and girls to fight the root causes of injustice.

We work together with activists across the world to campaign for a world free from violence, for justice and for sustainable future for all of us.

Over the years we’ve worked with activists who have successfully achieved change for women and girls across the world, including in Ghana, Jordan and Bangladesh.

ActionAid Community Campaigners

Meet Sharvari

20-year-old Sharvari is a Community Campaigner with ActionAid. 

"One of the main reasons I’m so passionate about campaigning for ActionAid is that they prioritise girls and put them at the forefront of their decisions and funding. Through my work at ActionAid, I am learning that power is shared and it’s the small actions like signing petitions and having difficult conversations that really make the difference."

Sharvari Patel is a Community Campaigner with ActionAid UK.
