Championing Women Leaders from the Ground Up

About Groundswell

Groundswell is a Scottish Charity that champions women’s leadership – from the ground-up – in emerging democracies and conflict-affected countries. It does this by providing adaptive, responsive and inclusive assistance for established and potential women leaders whose focus is on promoting positive change. Using established networks, Groundswell has a powerful ripple effect, working directly with grassroots women leaders who, in turn, drive change in their communities. In every aspect of its work, Groundswell promotes compassion, resilience and hope.

Through Groundswell support, women leaders has impacted the lives of thousands of community members providing:

  • Courses on personal safety and staying safe in an active conflict zone

  • Stress management and mental health support
