OUR MISSION

Zonta International is a leading global organization of professionals empowering women worldwide through service and advocacy.

 OUR VISION

Zonta International envisions a world in which women’s rights are recognized as human rights and every woman is able to achieve her full potential.

In such a world, women have access to all resources and are represented in decision making positions on an equal basis with men.

In such a world, no woman lives in fear of violence.

OUR 2022-24 BIENNIAL GOALS

ZONTA INTERNATIONAL is needed now more than ever. Our vision for gender equality is not yet a reality. Around the world, women and girls are facing increased challenges as a result of COVID-19, climate change and threats to their human rights. To respond to these challenges, we need a strong, committed community of individuals working together at the local and global levels to fight for gender equity. Together, we will build a better world for women and girls aspiring to these Biennial Goals.

OUR FIVE PILLARS

The 2022-2024 goals remain aligned with ZONTA’s mission and vision and are centered under these five pillars:

1. Stand Out for Gender Equity

2. Represent Global Citizenship

3. Develop Future Leaders

4. Celebrate Ourselves

5. Position ZONTA for the Future
