The Voice of Libyan Women (VLW) is a non-governmental organization (NGO) founded in order to advance and protect women's rights in Libya. VLW is headquartered in Tripoli and has branch offices in Zawia and Misrata.[1] VLW is still very much a youth-led organization which continues to advocate for women's development[2] and to challenge the prevailing norms of Libyan society.[3] VLW works to spread information at a national level by creating local teams made up both of individuals and organizations.[4]
