ABOUT THE ORGANISER:
Penawar is a support group created for Singaporean women who are Muslims or are from a Muslim background, to share their thoughts on taboo and sensitive issues of religion and individual experiences of religious trauma. Their main aim is to reach out and build a strong peer-led support that enables these women to heal and find comfort via monthly support groups and other activities. Penawar is also a recipient of AWARE’s own Power Fund, which focuses on mentoring emerging organisations.
