Christian Muller Women’s College (CMWC) established by the North Kerala Diocese of the Church of South India (CSI) is a response to a longstanding need of the people of Chombala and Vatakara area for higher education. It was the Basal Evangelical Missionary Society, or Basal Mission which started working at the Malabar Coast, that brought basic education and opened its doors of learning to the backward classes and communities in Malabar. The North Kerala Diocese of the CSI who are successors of the churches established by the Basal Mission, considers it as a privilege and opportunity to carry forward the mission first conceived by the Basal Missionaries.
