Soroptimist International Damansara

The Damansara branch of Soroptimist International, a global movement of professional women, working towards empowering and enabling women.

Soroptimist International Club of Damansara ("SID") was founded in 1993 by a group of professional women, from a variety of backgrounds looking to educate, enable and empower women and children with a variety of skills to make their mark in the world. We are a strictly non-profit organisation, under the umbrella body of Soroptimist International Region of Malaysia, which in turn is part of the Fed

eration of the South West Pacific. Over the past 20 years we have worked with a variety of organisations from both the corporate and non-profit sectors, and built a variety of long term initiatives aimed at developing women and children.

to an awesome day last year where SI Damansara hosted our annual spelling bee 🐝 competition finals with children from underserved communities. The children from Rumah Hope & Rumah Aman Children’s Home, Desa Mentari B2 Learning Centre, Program Akademik Dan Insaniah of PPR Bukit Jalil and the Myanmar Refugee Community Learning Centre (MRCLC) prepared for months to compete on the big day and it showed in how many of them shone during the competition.

We’re so proud of how hard they works to learn and enhance their spelling skills, as well as their spirit of friendly competition and encouragement amongst one another. Every child deserves such opportunities and we continue to strive to support education, learning and literacy for these children.

Empowerment starts with skills — and grows into self-reliance with the right partnerships. 🧵✨
Soroptimist International Damansara has been supporting women from B40 communities in the Klang Valley to build livelihoods by honing their sewing skills and forming a social enterprise.

The Mentari-Sentul Crafters are a team of local women and refugees who are stitching a better future together by upcycling old fabric and giving it new life in the form of new creations such as bags, masks and more. Amcorp Group has been a valued partner in this journey, commissioning corporate bags and supporting the sustainability of this women-led enterprise. This is impact built on dignity, capability and collaboration, and we’re grateful for thoughtful and intentional partners who support community development ❤️

Everyone deserves to feel safe and heard online. Let's build that space together! 💙✨As we conclude our 16 Days of Activism to End Online Violence Against All Women and Girls, remember that this work doesn't end today. Thank you for being part of this movement. Together, we can create digital communities where everyone—regardless of gender, identity, or background—can participate fully and safely online.

Clear, modern laws can help stop online violence before it spreads. Effective legislation should focus on prevention through education and deterrence, provide swift justice pathways for survivors, and ensure consequences that match the severity of digital crimes. This means updating existing laws to reflect the realities of online harm, training law enforcement and judiciary on digital abuse, and creating specialised courts or procedures for handling these cases efficiently. Modern problems require modern legal solutions.

Stronger laws mean safer online spaces. Current legislation often falls short of addressing the severity and impact of online violence against women and girls. Policy change at local, national, and international levels is essential for creating lasting safety online.

07/12/2025

We all have the power to create safer online spaces. Every interaction we have shapes digital culture. When we choose kindness and respect, we contribute to an online environment where everyone can participate without fear. Creating safety online isn't just reactive—it's about actively fostering positive interactions and inclusive communities.

06/12/2025

Everyone can speak up to help others feel safe online. You don't need to be an expert or activist to make a difference. Whether you're challenging a harmful comment, supporting someone being harassed, or sharing educational content, your voice has power. Every person who chooses to speak up instead of staying silent helps shift online culture toward kindness and respect.

Spreading awareness and supporting others improves online safety for the entire community. Supporting someone through online abuse might mean helping them document evidence, connecting them with resources, or simply listening without judgment. Remember, collective action creates lasting change.

04/12/2025

Digital platforms have a role to play in creating safer, more respectful online communities. This includes thoughtful content moderation, clear safety policies, and support systems for users. A safer internet is possible when platforms prioritise user wellbeing and uphold human rights.

Social media companies play a crucial role in preventing abuse, supporting users, and shaping safety online. Let's hold them to account.

02/12/2025

Report abuse or harassment. Don't suffer in silence. Use reporting tools available on most platforms to flag abuse or harassment whenever you encounter it. Document evidence, report promptly, and know that seeking help is strength, not weakness.

Whether you're the target or a witness, reporting harmful behaviour is crucial for online safety. Reporting isn't just about individual cases; it helps platforms understand patterns of abuse and improve their safety systems.
