The Palestinian Red Crescent Organization in AlNeirab Camp for Palestinian refugees, north of Syria, said a number of women have managed to earn a living thanks to processing wool tutorials held by the organization.
Recently, a women’s empowerment project has been launched by the Red Cross in partnership with the UN Development Fund in order to help women integrate into the local labour market.
“Finally I managed to initiate my own project and gain my friends’ and neighbours’ confidence”, said a woman.
Several Palestinian refugee women have been their families’ sole bread winners in Syria. Scores of them have gone widowed after they lost their husbands and/or children in the war or due to torture.
Thousands of other women have been displaced from such refugee camps as Yarmouk and Khan Eshieh to northern Syria, where they have been struggling for survival in the impoverished refugee tents.
