About

Empowering women and girls living in the poorest regions of the world is fundamental to lifting families, communities, and nations from poverty. Men play a critical role as well in enabling women and girls to access life-saving information and services. Catapult provides a unique opportunity for all of us to help women and girls everywhere have the chance to live healthy and productive lives.
