Wikis > Center of Arab Women for Training and Research

The Center of Arab Women for Training and Research (CAWTAR) was established in 1993 in Tunisia as an Independent Regional Institution promoting Gender Equality in the Arab World through Research, Training, Networking and Advocacy. It was as a direct response to a long-felt need in the Arab region for a specialized center to promote the participation of Arab women in the development process.
