Hope Beyond Displacement: Educating and Empowering Women and Girls
Therese Hartwell lived in Saudi Arabia for 10 years before returning to her hometown, Houston, Texas.
While in Saudi, Therese served as First VP, President and FAWCO Rep for the American Women of the Eastern Province as well as on the FAWCO Human Rights Global Issues Team, which she has chaired since 2015.
Therese is also on the board of Collateral Repair Project and nominated their project, Hope Beyond Displacement for the FAWCO Target Project.
The FAWCO Human Rights Team is a comprehensive network of advocates working to ensure human rights for all women. The Team will keep members aware of new developments impacting women’s rights, including UN updates, through Human Rights Team Bulletins and other publications. We also engage FAWCO Members in awareness and action campaigns.
It is our goal to leverage FAWCO’s unique strength as a global women’s organization to help end violence and discrimination against women and girls.
