Handing over the governance of a state to a woman, she must be well groom both in character and formal education. It’s important to have as many educated women as possible for great positions in all levels of government and private.
Welcome to Standup For Women Society (SWS)
The aims of this organisation is to bring all Nigerian women together to speak with one voice in demanding for our rights from the public and government at all times and levels. We do not aim our group creation at undermining our husbands or to erode our roles as wife’s and mother’s. Rather, It is aimed at ensuring that women are given their rights and treated better at homes and in the society. Women were created by God to be help-mates, partners and builders of their respective husband’s, children and families, and these roles must not be subjugated for any reason.
WHAT WE DO
To Achieve The Women's Rights In Nigeria, Our Focus are:
Some women may not be interested in education, but would rather have gained skills or trained in business to help themselves in their capacity building and empowered to fend and earn a living through acquisition skills and knowledge.
There is one universal truth, applicable to all countries, culture and communities: violence against women is never acceptable, never excusable, and never tolerable. Women’s right is a human’s right.
Today recognition of the untapped capacity and talents of women’s leadership leads to meaningful participation of women in local and national leadership roles helps in global economy and political development policy
Gender equality, also known as sexual equality or equality of the sexes, is the state of equal ease of access to resources and opportunities regardless of gender, including economic participation and decision-making;
