A-Ma House - Museum of Peace and Women's Rights Introduction
A nearly century-old building, a 25-year-long human rights movement, and a place that gathers the vitality of women’s lives—the Women’s Rescue Foundation has been conducting investigations into Taiwanese "comfort women" and pursuing claims against Japan since 1992. Over the past 25 years, they have accompanied and cared for the grandmothers, preserving 5,042 pieces of related audiovisual materials, books, and 730 artifacts. After 12 years of preparation and effort, "Grandma's Home: Museum of Peace and Women's Rights" was officially inaugurated on March 8, 2016, and formally established on December 10, showcasing the life stories of 59 Taiwanese "comfort women" grandmothers who have endured suffering. It is Taiwan's first multi-functional social education base founded on the "comfort women" human rights movement, gathering contemporary women's rights issues and empowering women. "Grandma's Home" remembers history, continually关注 contemporary women's rights, and aspires to transcend life’s traumas, inspire strength to move forward, and transform historical scars into a foundation for peace, seeking to realize a future of respect, equality, and non-violence.
