[HUO7] NGOs and Speakers #12: Women's Aid Organization

Website

Women's Aid Organization started in 1979 whereby the late Tun Tan Siew Sin was awarded the Tun Razak Award for his invaluable contribution to the country. Then, the pioneer volunteers worked as a collective to formulate the operating principles of self help and self empowerment for battered women who turned to WAO for help.

Their mission is to create a society that is free of violence against women. Whereas their visions are to promote and create respect, protection and fulfillment of equal rights for women and to work towards the elimination of discrimination against women, and to bring about equality between women and men. WAO will be talking about domestic violence and the cycle of violence.

[HUO7] NGOs and Speakers #11: MyFuture Foundation

Website | Twitter | Facebook | Tumblr

MyFuture Foundation is a foundation established by Datuk Zaid Ibrahim in October 2008. The purpose of this foundation is to make young Malaysian of the ages 15-30 years old to become more engaged and explore with each other on issue that are relevant to not just their ‘lives’ but to nation building. It aspires to create a new generation of

Malaysia

leaders, thinkers and mentors. All this combined the foundation visualizes a true Bangsa Malaysia society in the future. One without racial and religious discrimination.

-------------------------

What is the future narrative of this country? We seem to be constantly fighting over our past, and bickering about the present with little thought invested in imagining out future. This will be a workshop on futurecasting, an experiment to imagine possible futures and how it relates to present realities.

[HUO7] Students Workshops #9: Women's Rights

Women's Rights

“There are two kinds of moral law, two kinds of conscience, one in men and a quite different one in women. They do not understand each other; but in matters practical living a woman is judged by the men’s law, as if she were not a woman but a man.
A woman cannot be herself in present day society, which is an exclusively male society with laws written by men, and prosecutor and judges who judge female behaviour from the male point of view” .
