All Women's Action Society (AWAM)

AWAM is an independent feminist organisation in Malaysia committed to ending gender-based violence and upholding equality and rights for all. We are a tax-exempt, non-profit organisation established in 1988.

AWAM envisions a just, democratic, and equitable society where all persons, in particular women, are treated with respect and are free from all forms of violence and discrimination.

Based on feminist principles, we seek to achieve our vision by building a movement that informs, connects and mobilises towards:

• securing women’s rights ,
• bringing about gender equality,
• building capacities for women’s empowerment and social transformation ; and,
• supporting women in crisis.
