You are not alone: Empowering victims of domestic violence


The video features interviews with three survivors who share their painful experiences of domestic violence as well as how they got help.

In conjunction with the 16 Days Of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence (Nov 25 - Dec 10), the Women's Centre for Change in Penang has released a video to support victims of domestic violence and raise awareness about the rights of a woman under the law, particularly women in Muslim marriages.

"The purpose is to empower Muslim women on their rights in the family. A majority of domestic violence victims in government hospitals are Muslim women and our experience in helping them indicates that many of them don't understand their rights and don't know what they can do in situations of domestic violence," explains WCC programme director Karen Lai.
