About Women Chapter International (WCI)
Women Chapter International (WCI) is an independent, non-governmental organization established and registered in Sweden in 2020. WCI collaborates closely with civil society organizations globally to raise awareness of human rights issues at the international level. The organization advocates for the rights of vulnerable communities, especially human rights defenders (HRDs) and exiled HRDs, and works tirelessly to promote gender equality. Our focus includes addressing gender-based violence, discrimination, sexual violence, and providing support for survivors' rehabilitation.
Our Mission
At Women Chapter International, our mission is to advance human rights worldwide by empowering local civil society groups that are dedicated to human rights protection in their respective countries. We provide essential digital safety, security, and advocacy training to strengthen the capacity of these groups and enable them to act effectively.
Through partnerships with local and international organizations, WCI advocates on behalf of individuals and communities most vulnerable to discrimination, injustice, and human rights violations. Our primary focus is on supporting marginalized communities, particularly women, in their fight for equality and justice.
Since our inception in June 2020, WCI has successfully implemented three impactful projects, each contributing to our core mission. These initiatives included digital security and policy advocacy training, the expansion of our global network of human rights defenders, and addressing the trans-generational effects of wartime sexual violence. Through these efforts, we aim to ensure long-term change for vulnerable communities and work toward sustainable solutions that protect and empower survivors.
Looking Ahead
We are continuously seeking new opportunities that align with WCI’s objectives to uphold and protect human rights. Whether it involves grassroots advocacy, capacity building, or international collaboration, WCI is committed to exploring diverse opportunities that contribute to the advancement of human rights. By forging partnerships and engaging in meaningful dialogue, we aspire to expand our efforts and create lasting impact in areas where human rights violations persist.
