Voice Of Faith

What Voice Of Faith does

Voice of Faith (VoF) is a non-profit advocacy initiative founded in 2014 and operated as a project of the Liechtenstein-based Fidel Götz Stiftung. The organization creates a platform for Catholic women — particularly religious sisters — to speak publicly about their experiences of discrimination, abuse, and exclusion within the Catholic Church. Its work centers on convening voices through events (most notably International Women's Day celebrations inside the Vatican), publishing multi-language blog content and digital magazines, producing the Red Flags in Religious Life educational video series, and running advocacy campaigns such as Votes for Catholic Women, Overcoming Silence, and Sister, What Do You Say?

The underlying technology is a modest Squarespace-hosted website (voicesoffaith.org) that distributes blog articles, event information, downloadable PDFs, and embedded YouTube videos, supplemented by presence on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and email newsletters. VoF operates with a team of approximately 11 employees and co-founded the Catholic Women's Council (CWC) in November 2019 with Catholic women's associations from Germany, Austria, Liechtenstein, and Switzerland, which became a global umbrella group in January 2020.

VoF's business model is non-commercial: the platform is free to users, and organizational funding flows from the Fidel Götz Stiftung as sole institutional sponsor, supplemented by potential donations. Revenue figures, budgets, and donor diversification are not publicly disclosed. The target audience comprises Catholic women globally, with primary segments including religious sisters facing abuse or discrimination, Catholic women activists and reformers, and Catholic women's networks coordinating advocacy. The organization is GDPR-compliant, headquartered at Landstrasse 40a in Schaan, Liechtenstein, with a data protection contact address in Vaduz.

Core offering

Voice of Faith is a non-profit advocacy initiative that creates a global platform for Catholic women — especially religious sisters — to speak publicly about their experiences in the Church. It organizes events (notably International Women's Day events at the Vatican), produces the Red Flags in Religious Life educational video series, publishes multilingual blogs and digital magazines, runs advocacy campaigns (Votes for Catholic Women, Overcoming Silence, Sister What Do You Say?), and supports the Catholic Women's Council global network. All offerings are provided free of charge to participants.

Product overview

VoF is an advocacy platform rather than a traditional software product company. The organization operates as a centralized hub offering event programming, a blog/voice platform, educational videos, digital magazines, and advocacy campaigns—all focused on amplifying women's voices in the Catholic Church. Key offerings include the Red Flags educational video series, the annual International Women's Day events held at the Vatican, the Voices blog featuring articles in multiple languages, digital magazines documenting their conferences, and campaigns like Votes for Catholic Women, Overcoming Silence, and Sister What Do You Say. VoF also supports the Catholic Women's Council, a global networking initiative.
