Women Beyond Walls is a movement dedicated to amplifying voices to end the over-incarceration and over-criminalisation of women worldwide. We aim to build collective power and resource resistance in order to shape political advocacy and agendas. We are a space to bring together women with lived experience, lawyers, activists, academics, philanthropists, criminal justice professionals, feminists and allies. We are here for both people new to this issue as well as people who have ideas and experience to share.

From Poverty to Punishment, 2025 | REPORT
A report published by Penal Reform International and Women Beyond Walls, both members of the Global Campaign to Decriminalise Poverty and Status, examines some of the laws and practices across the world that, while not explicitly targeting women, disproportionately criminalise them due to poverty, their vulnerability and/or their status as a woman.
