Présentation du sujet 

On the 24th of February 2022, the world woke up to the shocking news of Putin’s invasion of Ukraine. After eight years of conflict in the Donetsk and Luhansk regions, people were already in a catastrophic situation, struggling to get access to their basic needs, living in fear and uncertainty. The COVID19 pandemic added to this chaos, and now, invasion and war have made their situation even more desperate. According to the UNHCR, millions of people, mostly women and children, are now victims of forced displacement. We know that in war and conflict women and girls, are at direct risk of sexual violence and human trafficking, especially on the migration routes. These women need protection, they need food, they need information about their rights, and they need supplies for them and their children: medicines, camping equipment, diapers, menstrual products, and so much more. 
This is why we need you! 

Since the beginning of the crisis, MaMaMa has been sending trucks to the Ukrainian border in order to provide supplies to those in need. The European Network of Migrant Women has produced guides to inform Ukrainian women about their rights as well as the risks of grooming, prostitution and trafficking. Osez le féminisme! is now joining forces to collect funds and enable more guides and supplies to be brought to women fleeing Ukraine
