The Chakhesang Hoho, Kohima extend our heartfelt congratulations to Mrs. Sano Vamuzo on being honoured with the Baptist World Alliance (BWA) Human Rights Award 2025, in recognition of her lifelong commitment to justice, peace, and human dignity.
A pioneering educator and social reformer, Mrs. Vamuzo has exemplified courageous leadership through decades of dedicated service. As the founding president of the Naga Mothers’ Association, she led bold initiatives against violence, substance abuse, and gender inequality-championing the values of compassion, human integrity, and nonviolence.
As the first Chairperson of the Nagaland State Commission for Women, and through countless grassroots engagements, she has uplifted voices often left unheard.
The BWA Human Rights Award is a richly deserved recognition of Mrs. Vamuzo’s tireless efforts to uphold the rights and dignity of all people. It also honours the spirit of the Naga women she has so faithfully represented-strong, wise, and peace-loving.
We celebrate this historic moment not only as an acknowledgment of her past accomplishments but as an enduring legacy that will continue to inspire generations to come. We are sure that her recognition by BWA will spur her to scale greater heights in her relentless endeavour to work for the betterment of our Naga Society.
