For its more than two decades of working with women and youth to empower them by providing access to social and economic resources, the European Union (EU) has this year recognised and bestowed local organisation, Women Across Differences (WAD), with its Annual Human Rights Award.
WAD is an NGO which enables women and girls to empower themselves through access to social and economic resources. It works across the dividing lines of age, ethnicity, class, politics, and religion.
“In recognition of collaborative support, celebration, and unwavering dedication, the European Union is honoured to acknowledge the 2023 European Union Delegation Human Rights Award to the organization, Women Across Differences,” Head of Cooperation of the EU Delegation, Joan Nadal-Sastre, said yesterday as he also highlighted the impactful works done by civil society here in championing human rights interests in this country.
