About the Directory
The NO MORE Global Directory is a first-of-its-kind, comprehensive international directory of domestic and sexual violence resources in almost every UN-recognized country and territory in the world. The NO MORE Foundation created the site in partnership with the United Nations and the World Bank, and it is intended to serve as a global hub of information and resources for victims and their loved ones. This directory is the latest step in our efforts to create a world with NO MORE domestic and sexual violence.

The programmes and funds are financed through voluntary rather than assessed contributions. The Specialized Agencies are independent international organizations funded by both voluntary and assessed contributions.
