Established in 2022, in response to increasing restrictions on women’s freedom of movement, the platform brings together women from diverse backgrounds and sectors, including academia, civil society, media, business, politics, and government institutions, alongside a number of male allies.

Barriers facing women in public life are documented and analysed through the platform, alongside efforts to amplify their voices and produce recommendations for national and international stakeholders. Through dialogue, research, knowledge production, and advocacy, participants exchange experiences, map common challenges, and shape collective responses. Through these efforts, the platform promotes more enabling conditions for women’s meaningful participation in decision-making and public affairs across Yemen.
