Our global effort to empower women by helping cities promote access
to information and life-changing municipal services has expanded further.

The Center selected 13 new cities to join the Inform Women, Transform Lives
campaign, bringing the total number of city partnerships to 48. Collectively, these four dozen cities span five continents and serve a metropolitan population of more than 265 million people.

Since 2021, the campaign has worked with participating cities to enhance
awareness of women鈥檚 right to information, increase understanding and use of
municipal and social services, and support local governments in reaching women. By selecting a service to amplify, cities make major impacts. Guatemala City, for example, increased use of free health services by 200%, and Kampala, Uganda, provided $250,000 in small loans to women鈥檚 groups.

The cities in the new cohort are: Abuja, Nigeria; Cardiff, Wales; Guadalajara, Mexico; Karachi, Pakistan; Kingston, Jamaica; Kisumu County, Kenya; Liverpool, England; Medell铆n, Colombia; Recife, Brazil; Rosario, Argentina; Tangier, Morocco; Toronto, Canada; and Tulsa, Oklahoma.

City governments applied to be part of this campaign, and the finalists were selected based on their commitment to transparency and gender equity.
