Description/notes

Nepal Muslim Women's Welfare Society (NMWWS) is a non-partisan, non-profitable, and non-discriminatory organization established in 2006 and registered as an NGO with the Government of Nepal. NMWWS works for the poor, marginalized, and disadvantaged women of Nepal.

Since 2006, NMWWS has been continuously working for the political participation of marginalized Muslim and Madheshi women in inclusive democratic reform. NMWWS focuses on capacity building through gender equity and leadership training for marginalized women's groups, enabling their access to mainstream politics. The inclusion of Muslim women in mainstream politics has effectively established a foundation for advocating for the equality and rights of marginalized Muslim and Madheshi women. NMWWS continuously advocates and highlights the issues of gender equality, women's rights, child rights, and violence against women. NMWWS works to build youth and women's leadership to raise awareness in the community and break the chain of harmful sociocultural practices. NMWWS focuses on increasing the enrollment and access of poor and marginalized girls to quality education. NMWWS works for economic empowerment, promoting the economic independence of poor and marginalized women. NMWWS empowers women to build better livelihoods and create businesses that provide jobs and boost their living standards. Investing in women’s economic empowerment sets a path for poverty reduction and for gender equality.
