Overview
The Women's Rights Network (WRN) was founded with the goal of establishing a Global Network Against Domestic Violence & Sexual Abuse that would offer its members ongoing access to resources strategies and organizing opportunities in different countries. In building its Global Network WRN recognized the strategic value of using the human rights framework in the struggle to end domestic violence and sexual abuse and the need for advocates in the United States to develop a human rights approach to these issues in their own communities. In 2003 WRN completed the Battered Mothers Testimony Project (BMTP) which documented and exposed human rights abuses by the Massachusetts family courts against battered mothers fighting their abusers for custody of their children. WRN s work is currently continued through the Gender and Justice Project at the Wellesley Centers for Women at Wellesley College.
