Dar Alaamal

We (Rabia, Abeer, Jumana, Barbara Angela and Monika) founded a new association in Berne, called ‘ Dar Alaamal’ – House of Hope, with the notion to serve women and their families, especially moslem immigrant women and refugees. The work we want to do should answer to the deepest needs of these women.
The women can make their requests and should get the needed support and encouragement in terms of knowledge, finances and converting into practice, to realize projects on their own.
We would like to create a place, where women and their families can:

• Meet in a safe environment, with open sharings and advice in issues of everyday life.
• Educate their children in their own language and culture.
• Learn more about the Swiss culture
• Find an appropriate work with the notion of further integration or even paid employment (s.a. Catering with meals of different cultures)
