Project Resist

What They Do

Project Resist is a new and exciting independent strategic advocacy and policy organisation that specifically focuses on the needs of black and minority women. It draws on four decades of the frontline experience of its two key founding members: Pragna Patel and Rosie Lewis. They have previously led trail blazing specialist organisations and conducted pioneering and award-winning cases, policy work and campaigns in support of women’s rights to justice and self-determination in the face of gender-based violence and related issues of racism and social, economic and political discrimination and inequality.
