Jinwar in Kurdish language means, the land of women. This the name of a female-only community, founded and run by the women of the local Kurdish-run administration to create a space where women can live “free of the oppressive power structures of patriarchy and capitalism” as its inhabitants describe it. It opened in last November and 15 of its 30 adobe brick houses are home to Kurdish and Arab families from Yazidi and Muslim religions background. The women built their own houses, bake their own bread and hope to produce their own food in the near future to the from the land donated to the village from the Kurdish authority. Jinwar village is aimed to give shelter for women lost their husband fighting against ISIS or escaped from the domestic violence and now want to live independently free of patriotic power.Jinwar is located 70km toward the west of Qamishlo the capital of Rojava in the northeast of Syria. The resident of Jinwar hope to develop this project in a largest scale and spread the idea of only-women run villages in entire Syria in order to empower women especially those who are directly effected by ongoing war in Syria.
