Action For Women Details
Action for Women (formally Action from Switzerland) is a non-profit organisation based in Zürich, Switzerland, founded to focus solely on the needs of women and girls. We are run by volunteers and supported entirely by private donors.Our two projects include the Athena Women's Centre in Chios, and the Halcyon Days Project in AthensAthena Centre for Women - ChiosFounded on Action for Women's three pillars of safety, support and hope, the Centre offers women education, information, social psychological support and a safe space to speak up about gender-based violence. We believe in the women's ability to draw on their own power to create change, rather than be the passive recipient of circumstance. We take a collaborative approach, drawing up the education schedule so that it reflects the women's feedback and wishes.Halcyon Days Project - AthensWe opened this project to reinforce our commitment in providing safety, support and hope, and standing in solidarity with the women and girls who have moved on from Chios, against their struggles in Athens.As well as a shelter for up to 15 women and their families, there is a ‘knowledge hub' offering language classes, skills-based training and psychosocial activities. Access is granted to all women living in the area, Greek and foreigners, over the age of 14 years.We could not have created these projects without the generosity of our donors but we need continuous donations in order to keep it open.
