Equality Now works to protect and promote the civil, political, economic and social rights of women and girls around the world. We partner with grassroots groups and activists from around the world to document cases of violence and discrimination against women and mobilize international action, to support their efforts to stop these human rights abuses. Our Women’s Action Network comprises of over 30,000 groups and individual members in over 160 countries. Equality Now has always believed in the power of the individual to create social change, and we consider our membership base to be the nerve center of our advocacy efforts. Some of the issues we are currently working on are: Ending Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) across Africa, Ending Sex trafficking and sex tourism globally, Demanding accountability from the Mexican government for the murders of women in Ciudad Juarez, Demanding an end to stoning of women in Iran and much more.For more information, please visit our website at www.equalitynow.org.
