Malikah‘s sixth annual National Muslim Women’s Summit is a two-day conference packed with empowering workshops for community members in self defense, healing justice, organizing, financial literacy and much more. The summit is open to all Muslim women and gender expansive people.

In today’s climate of Islamophobia, xenophobia, racism, sexism, and other forms of hate, Muslim women are more vulnerable than ever. Yet we also have more tools than ever before to organize, strategize, and build power in, for, and with our communities. As a global, grassroots organization, Malikah commits to building power and safety for all women and gender marginalized people. Inspired by the brilliance and vision of the Muslim women who founded the organization and run its programs, the annual summit offers a key annual opportunity for Malikah to develop, connect, and support young Muslims driving change for gender justice.

Day 1 of this year’s summit will take place at Queens Museum on Saturday, March 26th. Day 2 will be virtual on Sunday March 27th. Each day has a different line up of exciting events! Please note that this is a ticketed event. You can see the full agenda at bit.ly/nmws-agenda.
