September 2016 – Ta'aung Women

About Us

Ta’ang Women’s Organization (TWO) was established in Mae Sot, Thailand, in 2000, under the name ‘Palaung Women’s Organization’ (PWO). At the time, women were not actively participating in other Ta’ang organizations due to widely held misconceptions about women’s unsuitability that restricted their access to training, education, skills-building, and leadership roles. PWO’s mandate was to remove some of these barriers and empower women to achieve equality in their communities.
