Stop Violence Against Women
The Women's Rights Center
The Women's Rights Center was founded in December 1994. The Center was created to ensure that a gender perspective is present during the law-making process and in the application of law, and that women and men are equal before the law. The Women's Rights Center is a diligent advocate for equal status and opportunities for women and men in public life and within the family. The main goals of the Center are to: change the law and the application of law, as well as those customs and habits of the culture at large which violate gender equality; ensure that a gender perspective is included in the creation and implementation of law, as well as in governmental and non-governmental projects and programs; foster the recognition of Women's rights as human rights; educate and sensitize society about discrimination and violence against women, particularly within the legal community; raise women's awareness of their rights through publications and by providing legal assistance to women who are victims of discrimination and violence.
