M.A.I.S. Ong
Overview
MAIS Movimento per l`Autosviluppo l`Interscambio e la Solidarieta` is a nonreligious, independent and non-profit organisation, recognized by the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and by the European Union. M.A.I.S. promotes the cooperation between peoples and fights for a fair and just world, through promoting self-development projects, human rights defence and against any form of exploitation and social exclusion.
M.A.I.S.’s activity aims at contributing to the promotion of women’s and girls’ rights and to the strengthening of civil society organisations’ capacity. To reach this aim it is necessary to work for the change of those cultural and social attitudes that make women and children exposed to violent and harmful behaviours, to increase awareness about violent and discriminating practices, to make access to support services easier for women who are victims of violence, and to train operators of the civil society organisations (particularly the Community Development Associations), from an empowerment and sustainability point of view.
