Numun Fund

Numun Fund is a feminist technology fund grounded in and led by movements in the Larger Majority World (Global South). The fund seeds, resources, and sustains feminist activists who engage with technology as a critical site for activism, social justice, and systemic change. It supports collective organizing efforts that center historically excluded communities and challenge prevailing power structures such as patriarchy, colonialism, and capitalism. The fund explicitly challenges the concentration of technology resources and decision-making in the Global North by prioritizing community-led grantmaking and shifting power to women in all their diversity.
