About us
As the umbrella body for women's organisations in Singapore, the Singapore Council of Women's Organisations (SCWO) serves as a unifying force, bringing together diverse voices and perspectives to champion gender equality. Through advocacy, education and empowerment, SCWO strives to create a society where women have equal opportunities and rights in all aspects of life. With a steadfast commitment to its goals, SCWO plays a pivotal role in driving positive change, striving to eliminate systemic barriers for women in Singapore. Equal Space - Women should feel safe wherever they are, free to live their lives as they choose without any danger of discrimination, harassment, sexual assault, and violence. Equal Voice - Women should be equally represented in political, corporate, and community leadership. Policymaking will benefit from the perspectives they bring to the discussions and decisions. Equal Worth - Women should be fully recognised and valued for their contributions to society, family, and the workplace, where there should be no gender wage gap for work of equal value.
