Nazra Closes its Office, Continues its Work<\/h1>\n

Following North Cairo Court of First Instance\u2019s ruling to freeze both feminist & WHRD \"\"Mozn Hassan- the founder and executive director of \u201cNazra for Feminist Studies\u201d & \u201cNazra for Studies\u201d company and Nazra for Feminist Studies- assets, in which the Judge, in the case #173, knows as the case of \u201cforeign funding for organizations\u201d considered the first precendent where the funds of a women\u2019s organization are held, Nazra won\u2019t be able to hold on their main officer, and workspace, any longer.

The Regional Alliance for Women Human Rights Defenders in the Middle East and North Africa supports and supports “a look at feminist studies”. Human rights defenders at the Kefar Feminist Studies Foundation also stress their determination to work. We reject the Egyptian authorities’ attempt to close civil society spaces with women human rights defenders. Egypt, which inevitably affects women human rights defenders in the region.<\/p>\n

The Regional Coalition for Women Human Rights Defenders in MENA supports and stands in solidarity with Nazra for Feminist Studies. The Coalition salutes their determination on continuing their work despite all challenges facing their sustainability due to case #173. We reject the Egyptian authorities\u2019 attempt to shrink down civil society spaces and close spaces available for WHRDs in Egypt, which inevitably affects WHRDs in the region. The Coalition is indebted to Nazra\u2019s initiative in 2013, in which more than 40 WHRDs have agreed to establish the Coalition. Nazra has give times, effort and energy to support dozens of WHRDs in the MENA along with providing them with protection through various international and national means. Nazra\u2019s work has helped in the formations of a collective feminist awareness in the region, capable of placing feminist demands on national and regional agendas.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
