Partnerships
KIM Women's Centre
KIM Women’s Centre has an overall goal to facilitate women’s empowerment and gender equality for Balinese women and girls in the local area. KIM empowers women by facilitating job skills training and support programs such as cooking and English language classes. But most importantly, the women’s centre provides a safe haven for marginalised women who are generally highly stigmatised and ostracised in the community.
