Mission
Statement Women Beyond Borders is a student-organized
women's human rights group that works in solidarity with community-based
women's organizations worldwide to end violence against women and promote
women's equality in all sectors.
We partner with organizations that are run by women for women, and
which meet a need in their respective communities that larger, international
or government funded organizations may not. Through local fundraising
we support women's aid projects operated by our sister organizatoins,
and through lobbying and education we strive to defend the basic human
rights of women worldwide.
Locally, we are committed to educating our own community about the
status of women in the world, as well as ensuring the well-being and
empowerment of our hard-working members, each of whom enliven this group
with their passion and dedication as they tirelessly inspire social
change.
