Hawa Feminist Coalition was founded by young feminists in 2018 with the aim of promoting the safety, equality, justice, rights and dignity of young women and girls in Somalia where women bear an unequal brunt of hardships exacerbated by poverty, conflict, religious and cultural limitations which promote strict male authority. Pre-existing toxic social norms and gender inequalities, economic and social stress caused by the pandemic, coupled with restricted movement and social isolation measures, have led to an exponential increase of gender-based violence in Somalia.
