  • About Us

    The mission of BAWAR is to empower, support, intervene on behalf of, and advocate for survivors of gender-based violence. We do this by holding a core set of values: affirming, believing, and centering survivors of oppressive factors at the interpersonal and structural levels. We are accountable to all members of this community, and the community itself, to transform the structures that benefit from gender-based violence and dismantle the systems of oppression throughout our communities.
