About us
Adalaty Centre is an independent organisation led by Syrian women that seeks to elevate their voices and experiences to impact and lead on the understanding and delivery of justice (in all its forms) in Syria.
​
The centre aims to create a space in which diverse women contribute to public discourse and to knowledge production through the lens of their individual and collective experiences for the purpose of strengthening awareness of human rights, women’s rights, and democracy within Syrian society; setting priorities for a future Syria that is built upon sustainable and just peace; and preserving women’s narratives of the Syrian struggle for democracy since the outbreak of the 2011 revolution.

Dialogue Session
Adalaty, in cooperation with Daraya’s Civil Administration, held a dialogue session on September 13 to present the outcomes of the creative writing workshop the organization has conducted in previous years.
These workshops reflect Syrian women's narratives on justice processes, including transitional justice, and the necessity and importance of women's active participation as key actors in the Syrian context and as partners in formulating justice strategies in Syria. The session included a group of female civil society activists, survivors, and families of victims in Syria.
The session witnessed significant interaction between the speakers and previous workshop participants, Nayla Kazibra, Amani Al-ali, and Nivin Houtary, and the audience. The attendees also included prominent figures in the Syrian cultural scene, such as writer and researcher Hanan Lahham and novelist Nour Al-Jandali.
