WOMEN FOR EQUALITY ASSOCIATION, KUALA LUMPUR AND SELANGOR) (WEA)

Women For Equality Association Kuala Lumpur and Selangor or better known as WEA was established to help victims of gender-based violence.

Our goal is to see Malaysia as a country where women are free from gender-based violence and are able to achieve a good and sustainable livelihood for themselves and their families. We strongly support the equality of men and women in the field of economic opportunities.

WEA serves to improve the standard of living of women through increased lifestyle choices and empowerment through enhanced education and life skills.

We have provided support services to women and children who have experienced domestic violence and strive to build a gender-equitable society. We have conducted various workshops and webinars to raise public awareness on gender-based violence and related issues. We also build networks with government and non-government bodies as a means to achieve our objectives.
