Global Gender


CREA is a nonprofit organization originated in India and also in the United States that works together to strive for women’s human rights, violence against women, sexuality, and reproductive rights. It focuses on women from the South and promotes knowledge, information and scholarships. Their vision is to promote equality and a just world free of poverty, violence, discrimination through their organization. CREA especially focuses on women and young children of India and the South. Women’s lives in India have improved immensely since the ancient and the medieval period. Women now are treated equally since the Constitution of India was passed. Several feminist groups and non government organizations have improved their society and women rights in issues like rape, sexuality, and other human rights. Women participate in media, education, art, sports, politics, and much more. Actresses like Aishwarya Rai and politicians like Indira Gandhi are also praised greatly due to their achievements and status in society.
