Nonprofit Organisation HemAth Gets UN Accreditation For Empowering Displaced Kashmiri Women
United Nations: The UN has granted accreditation to a US-based non-profit organisation dedicated to empowering displaced and underserved Kashmiri women, a status that will enable it to engage actively with the world organisation and provide a global platform to advocate for "women whose voices are often unheard."
HemAth Inc has been granted Special Consultative Status with the United Nations Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC), which is one of the six principal organs of the UN and is focussed on advancing economic, social and environmental dimensions of sustainable development.
Founder and President of HemAth INC Dr Shakun Malik told PTI that the “distinguished recognition” by UN ECOSOC marks a significant milestone in HemAth's journey from a grassroots initiative serving displaced Kashmiri women to an internationally recognised civil society organisation contributing to global dialogue on women’s empowerment, sustainable development and social inclusion.
