Minority Ethnic Women’s Network
(MEWN Swansea)
MEWN Swansea literally translated, means ‘Within Swansea’ and is an
organisation working towards the establishment of a Network of black
and
ethnic minority women and women’s organisations, in the Swansea Bay
area.
Our mission
is to remove
the barriers to participation in the Welsh community.
Our objectives are to:
- Set up as a
multicultural centre.
- Empower women from
black and ethnic minority communities and enable them to develop
their own initiatives and participate fully in mainstream
services.
- Provide a regular
drop-in service for black and ethnic minority women.
- Establish a training
unit for black and ethnic minority women that offer courses that
will help the women get back into the workforce. (Computer
classes, English classes, Confidence building, Social skills
etc.)
A Forum for
Support
MEWN Swansea
is a forum where black and ethnic minority women provide mutual
support, sharing expertise and experience.
