Syrian Future Movement (SFM) and Women
The Syrian society is generally patriarchal, influenced by the historical condition of the entire region, along with a system of inherited customs and traditions. This is followed by the policies of the Syrian regime since the era of both Assads, father and son. Despite the Syrian society interacting with the global renaissance and the calls for women to take their rights in the present age, the path to empowering Syrian women is still at the beginning of its journey. The Syrian Future Movement has committed to the path of empowering Syrian women, considering them as an active and influential Syrian component.
