Gender Justice Beyond Borders

Gender Justice Beyond Borders

Meet the Center for Migration, Gender, and Justice:

The Center for Migration, Gender, and Justice (CMGJ) is a migrant-, women-, and youth-led non-profit NGO that addresses human rights at the intersection of migration and gender through research, advocacy, and education.

Our Story:

We launched CMGJ out of the belief that gender justice goes beyond borders (Vision).

Gender justice beyond borders necessitates shared agency, representation, and accountability in protecting human rights for all.

This can be achieved by shrinking spaces between migrant communities and governing bodies (Mission).

Our Projects:

We currently have four projects that contribute to achieving our vision and mission:

“Our work is based on principles of knowledge, action, and community.”

- Dr. Lara-Zuzan Golesorkhi, Founder and Executive Director

Our journey:

Stay up-to-date with our work and be part of our journey for gender justice beyond borders on social media.
