WHO WE ARE

About Korea Women's Hot-Line


Korea Women's Hot-Line (KWHL) took its first step in 1983 toward a world free from violence against women and a gender-equal society.

KWHL was the first organization in Korean society to introduce counseling services for survivors of violence against women and established shelters.

We work to guarantee and support women's human rights against all forms of violence against women, including domestic violence, sexual violence, dating violence, stalking, and digital sexual violence.

Currently, over 10,000 members nationwide and 24 regional branches across the country are working together to create this vision.
