Saadi, a 13th century Iranian poet, once said, “a little and a little, collected together, becomes a great deal.” It’s difficult to think of a better description for the women’s rights movement in the Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria, commonly known as Rojava, a region largely populated by Kurds. The Kurds have no official state, but the diverse ethnic group is spread out across several countries in the Middle East, including an autonomous area of Iraq overseen by the Kurdistan Regional Government, or KRG.
