Forcibly displaced Syrian women need urgent support
Format
Thousands of Syrian women, along with their family members, have been forcibly displaced from their homes as part of a process called reconciliation agreements . Most were taken to unknown and unsafe locations in other parts of Syria. On last Wednesday 28 April a group of Syrian forcibly displaced women (FDS) launched a position paper reflecting their conditions, rights and demands. The position paper is the result of a project that PAX partner Women Now for Development has been working on over the past 2 years and that brought together and trained a group of women who survived sieges and forced displacement.

BEIRUT M. had not slept for two months when she reached out to Jouhaina Mouslem asking for psychological help. “This woman was devastated, collapsed,” recalled Mouslem, a psychologist originally from Aleppo and currently active in the mental health programs of the ‘Women Now’ NGO in Lebanon.
M. had been detained in a Syrian regime prison. After being released, her husband left her, so she fled to Lebanon, leaving her two children in Syria. M. remarried and had a son, but her second husband also left her. She was in a critical economic situation. “She had depression, acute anxiety; she went through all her Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) symptoms living alone,” Mouslem explained.
