The SAGE Fund (SAGE) is a collaborative fund that seeks to strengthen the human rights accountability of powerful economic actors and address critical gaps in protection created by the global economy. The organization does this work by spurring innovation in partnership with grantees to hold all economic actors, particularly non-state actors, accountable for human rights violations; building knowledge, skills, and leveraging capacity (with a focus on the Global South) to analyze key challenges, fashion strategies in response to those challenges, and mobilize new coalitions and constituencies; and creating greater leverage within the donor and NGO communities by building consensus and an impactful agenda for the field.
