The client
Vital Voices looks for leaders with a creative streak, women carrying a vision, and those who have already proved themselves locally — then partners with them so their work reaches further.
The Global Partnership was founded over twenty years ago on the understanding that progress in a community depends on the women in it, and that without their participation the world stalls.
The challengeWhat the teams actually needed
The organisation asked Netguru for a hub where women could share ideas, build relationships and ask for support.
Challenge 01A place to share ideas
The hub had to make exchanging ideas natural rather than something that needs organising.
Challenge 02Relationships, not contacts
Building genuine relationships between members was the point, which is harder than a directory.
Challenge 03Support when it is needed
Members had to be able to seek support from the network, which means knowing who to ask.
What we did
A hub for a global network of women leaders
Vital Voices draws on long experience supporting activists, innovators and entrepreneurs, through signature programmes, individual investment and thought leadership.
Ideas in circulation
The platform gives members somewhere to put an idea in front of people who can do something with it.
Skills and networking
The organisation runs networking and skill-building programmes: leadership and global activation, entrepreneurship and economic empowerment, human rights, and work against violence towards women.
Their own leadership model
Vital Voices built a Leadership Model from practices learned from women leaders, promoting a collaborative and innovative style — and the platform carries it.
Change that lasts
Signature programmes, individual investments and thought leadership are what the organisation uses to catalyse lasting change, and the hub connects them.
