Canadian Council of Muslim Women

The Canadian Council of Muslim Women works to advance the rights and wellbeing of Muslim women in Canada through advocacy, education, and community engagement. The organization addresses issues including gender equality, domestic violence prevention, and access to justice, while challenging harmful stereotypes and promoting dialogue between Muslim communities and the broader public. Based in Toronto, the council provides resources and support to Muslim women facing discrimination or abuse, and works with policymakers to influence legislation affecting their safety and equality. The organization operates from a feminist perspective grounded in Islamic principles, creating spaces where Muslim women's voices lead discussions about their own experiences and needs.
