WWHI is a storymapping project which documents violence against Indigenous women and girls with the aim of identifying gaps in response systems and promoting healing. Kristin Welch, a 2021 Indigenous Communities Fellow who leads WWHI, won the 2021 Vodafone Prize and went on to receive an additional $25,000 to develop her storymapping pilot, in addition to in-kind support from Vodafone employees. WWHI has also acted as an informal advisor to better Vodafone’s work with Indigenous communities.
