Empowering Syrian Refugee Women and Girls

Online event, 25 March 2021, 19h CET via Zoom


 
 
This online event, organised by NPWJ in collaboration with Equity and Empowerment, represents an opportunity to amplify the voice of Syrian women and girls and to ensure that every segment of the humanitarian response at all levels - national, regional and multilateral - is based on the active involvement of affected communities and victims in the elaboration of inclusive policies and practices and that refugee women and girls are treated as rights holders, rather than objects in need of protection.
This event is organised in the framework of the NPWJ project “Strengthening first line responders and empowering refugee women and girls in Turkey to combat and overcome SGBV”, funded by UNWOMEN.
