DEEP EnGender (Dialogue, Empathy, Ecology, Peace EnGender) is a volunteer-based, non-profit, non-governmental organization aiming for social transformation. At the moment, our work focuses on three key areas: Peace & gender justice; Indigenous food system & ecological regeneration; and the Indigenous rights to education. Our priority is working with vulnerable groups including women, youth, and Indigenous communities in Southeast Asia & beyond.
“Towards a Just and Peaceful Society through Dialogue and Empathic Engagement”
- Bridging divides and promoting collaboration among stakeholders through research and community-led initiatives.
- Engendering grassroots-community active and inclusive participation.
- Empowering Indigenous groups, women, and youth to be active change-makers in building peace, gender justice, food systems, climate resilience, and ecological regeneration.
