Savy Amira WCC is a non-profit organization founded by a group of women activists on November 25, 1997, under Notarial Deed No. 27\/1997 by Shinta Ameliawaty, SH.\nFrom the various cases we have handled, we initially developed into a crisis center for women survivors of gender-based violence, particularly domestic violence. Over time, we grew into a service provider center for women and children who are survivors of gender-based violence (GBV).<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

The idea to establish this organization began with a Feminist Counselling training held by SPeAK in July 1997 in West Java. Raquel Edralin Tiglao (late), founder of the Philippine Women\u2019s Crisis Center, served as the trainer and inspired three women from Surabaya who participated in the training. Their shared passion to initiate support services from a women\u2019s perspective for women survivors of violence sparked the early efforts, starting with small, open gatherings for anyone concerned about the issue. These meetings, known as \"Reboan\" (Wednesday Meetings)\u2014held every Wednesday\u2014continued for six months with rotating participants. Hosted in a friend\u2019s office space, these regular meetings eventually led to the consensus to establish a women\u2019s crisis center under the name Savy Amira, meaning \u201cWomen\u2019s Ally\u201d.<\/span><\/p>

The organization's growth\u2014both administratively and in terms of personnel\u2014was gradual, sustained by self-funding and public donations. Services began modestly: five part-time members shared their personal phone lines to create a 24-hour hotline. The \"office\" was a borrowed room in one of the members\u2019 homes. In 1999, a new volunteer with prior experience in women\u2019s NGOs outside Surabaya joined the team, helping to structure the work more systematically. Volunteer numbers slowly increased. Sympathy and support from individuals and philanthropic groups in Surabaya\u2014such as the Rotary Club\u2014enabled Savy Amira in 2001 to rent a more representative space to serve as its secretariat and temporary shelter.<\/span><\/p>

By 2002, partnerships and networks with like-minded institutions, particularly in East Java, began to strengthen. Case management services also became more structured and effective. Since 2005, Savy Amira has increasingly become a referral center for psychological and legal assistance. Community engagement programs through various media and formats grew stronger, along with active participation in training and policy advocacy efforts at both the regional (East Java) and national levels.<\/span><\/p>

Naturally, these advancements came with greater challenges. The complexity of handling domestic violence cases increased alongside changes in the national and global political and economic landscape. Openness to collaboration and mutual support with various stakeholders became imperative. A critical mindset\u2014both internally and externally\u2014was essential to maintain the clarity of the movement\u2019s direction, while continuously nurturing trust, cooperation, and solidarity. These values have become the cornerstone of every action within Savy Amira WCC, ultimately shaping it into a trusted service provider for women and children survivors of gender-based violence (GBV).<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

We believe that violence against women, whether it occurs in the public sphere or within the household, is fundamentally a crime against humanity.\nIt is rooted in value systems and belief structures that position women as unequal to men, and perpetuated by a culture of violence that is deeply ingrained in society. This has led to the normalization of violence against women as something \u201cunderstandable\u201d or \u201cdeserved simply because she is a woman.\u201d\nAs a result, many forms of violence\u2014which are, in fact, violations of women's human rights\u2014receive far too little attention, whether in terms of understanding, prevention, or systemic response.<\/p>

But we believe this so-called \u201cnormalcy\u201d can and must be changed.\nWe are convinced that every obstacle to change also carries hidden opportunities waiting to be uncovered and addressed together with wisdom and collaboration.<\/p>

For that change, we exist!<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
