Young Malaysians Start NGO to Teach Refugee Women

Young Malaysians Start NGO to Teach Refugee Women

Two young Malaysian law students have started a group, Women For Refugees, to teach refugee women how to read and write. We speak to the co-founder of the group to find out what inspired them to launch this initiative and how they were forced to change their teaching methods because of the latest CMCO.

If you’d like to keep up to date with all the work done by Women For Refugees or would like to volunteer, you can follow them on Instagram and Twitter @WomenForRefugees.
