It campaigns to promote awareness of the condition of Kurdish women, with particular attention to domestic violence and honour killings. It also works to improve the health and education of Kurdish women, in cooperation with women's groups and human rights organisations in Kurdistan and the Kurdish diaspora. It is currently working with Bristol University on a study of honour-based violence in Iraqi Kurdistan and the United Kingdom.{{cite web
