The Syrian Women’s Political Movement (SWPM) held its second general assembly meeting virtually due to the outbreak of the Corona pandemic from May 2nd until June12th, 2020.

To establish a democratic and pluralistic State based on the principles of equal citizenship for all citizens regardless of their gender, race, religion, sect, geographic region or identity

The Syrian Women’s Political Movement (SWPM) held its first general assembly meeting in Frankfurt, Germany, from the 12th till the 14th of January 2019.

A large part of Syrians has been absented from continuing the causes they believe in because of hard living conditions imposed upon them. We cannot give up now, we want to work for each other and to empower and support those who need to continue.

I think that having an official feminist political body like the Movement, in itself, is a step in the way of equitable political representation of Syrian women.

I dream of an institution-based country which respects all citizens, a country ruled only by law.

Despite being far away from the people protesting on the streets of Syria, I felt empowered by them.

I hope that the SWPM will pay attention to Kurdish women who have suffered multiple persecutions because they are women first and Kurds second.

Syrian women proved their competency in all fields, including the political field.
