The Bahrain Human Rights Watch Society (BHRWS; (アラビア語:جمعية مراقبة حقوق الإنسان البحرينية)) is a Bahraini human rights organization established in November 2004 which claims to protect housemaids, and to fight for women's rights. ==Overview== Its president is Houda Ezra Nonoo, making the Society unique in the Arab world in being the only human rights group headed by a Jewish woman. Nonoo is a business woman. Another prominent member is trade unionist, Faisal Fulad. The Society has sought to support women's rights activists' campaign for the introduction of a personal status law to protect women in divorce and child custody. In association with the National Coalition to Stop Violence Against Women, the BHRWS launched the Respect Movement, a petition in support of the Personal Status Law.〔()〕 The second part of the Respect Movement’s agenda is a petition for laws to protect housemaids, who are not currently protected by Bahrain’s labour laws. Nonoo and Falud are members of the Shura Council 2006–2010. The organisation was described to be "government supported" by a leaked Wikileaks cable.〔("Wafa': A new Shia rejectionist movement - Passed to the Telegraph by WikiLeaks" ).
