Step Forward Global Initiative
SFGI shifts the conversation from “Who is in office?” to “Who steps forward to run for office?”
Women stepping forward to run for office are a growing global movement. Step Forward Global Initiative (SFGI) is a civic education and information network that ensures the women stepping forward are seen, connected, and recognized, and that you are better apprised of these women as you make decisions about your leadership.
We track upcoming elections globally where women are candidates, increasing visibility around their candidacies in the context of their respective countries. Through our nonpartisan, fact-based, and digital-first presence, we advance how women stepping forward are perceived.
