Karamah: Muslim Women Lawyers for Human Rights

National Summit of American Muslim Women Leaders

Education

KARAMAH views education as a fundamental tool of social change. This view has dominated our approach to various issues, ranging from women's rights within Islam to the civil rights of Muslims in America. Our activism and ability to bring positive social change stems from our dedication and commitment to this philosophy of educational outreach.

KARAMAH Meetings with International Muslim Delegations

Another aspect of KARAMAH's educational outreach is meeting with Muslim delegations from all over the world who travel to the United States on educational tours. KARAMAH provides these groups with a forum to learn about American Muslims and Islam in America. KARAMAH also uses these forums to exchange ideas about some of the challenges facing Muslim countries relating to women's rights, democracy and human rights.
