Working for the promotion of women‟s rights is based on the “Beijing Platform for Action.” Research and prevention policies against women‟s discrimination as well as confronting the violence against women are generally recommended, but there are also specific cultural issues that affect the outcomes of NGOs‟ interventions for female immigrants. This paper is focused on NGOs‟ actions to support immigrant women in Athens, Greece and researches culture in the promotion of gender equality, with special attention given to the needs of Muslim women. A qualitative research based on select NGOs‟ programs is presented and discussed in order to determine criteria for best practices. Interviews with programs‟ stakeholders also refer to practices‟ efficiency as well as to particular obstacles determined by cultural issues. Intercultural mediation as a practice for dealing with conflict and to maximize understanding and empowerment of women immigrants is also addressed.
