We
fight for the recognition of honour killing as a grave crime. We strive to
abolish it.
-
We help
and support victims of forced marriage and campaign for prohibition of
interference of authorities and family members in the private lives of
women.
-
We
campaign for the Imposition of severe penalties on abuse, intimidation and
violent treatment of women and girls in the family.
-
We
campaign for a secular and egalitarian family law.
Join us to
support victims of “honour killing” and forced marriage.
Committee to Defend Women’s
Rights in the Middle East
strives to achieve these objectives and is solely
dependent on its members and donations from supporters.
Abuse
and violence is disturbing, but not unstoppable. That’s why when we hear
about each new atrocity, we never lose hope. We know that it may be hard to
believe that the action of a few individuals can change dominant attitudes,
but believe us, it is possible.
So
before you ask yourself “what difference can one person make?” just think
what your support could mean to a victim. Don’t give abusers the opportunity
to intimidate and terrorise women. Support us now either by becoming a
member of “Friends of Women in the Middle East” or by making a donation.
Please
complete the form and give as generously as you can. A yearly membership of
£35 /
$55 will help us continue our work. Of course, if you can afford more, we
will appreciate it. Your membership and your money can really make the
difference to many women.
