UN Women<\/a> that receives funding from the Women\u2019s Peace and Humanitarian Fund (WPHF).<\/p>\nAt the beginning of the Russian-Ukrainian crisis, Bacico\u2019s main concern was to provide refugees with accommodation, food and personal hygiene products. But as time went on, she realized that the level of stress women refugees are under required something more.<\/p>\n
\u201cMost men have remained in their country, and women are involved in an ongoing struggle here\u2014they have to do their best to acquire food, hygiene products, clothing and various other services that they and their children need,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
Bacico decided to act, and through the WPHF-funded project, she has been providing a space where Ukrainian refugees and local women can come to receive free psychological counselling and beauty services. Getting a haircut or a manicure helps them feel better and, in the process, they also receive psycho-emotional counselling.<\/p>\n
WPHF currently provides financial support to 20 women\u2019s rights and women-led organizations in Moldova. With this support, the organizations offer humanitarian assistance and protection to women and girl refugees, promote the leadership of women in the humanitarian response and build inclusive communities.<\/p>\n
At a ceremony on 20 January 2023, marking the second round of funding offered, WPHF Secretariat head Ghita El Khyari highlighted how the narrative around women and women\u2019s organizations\u2014which in the past have not been considered legitimate humanitarian responders\u2014is changing.<\/p>\n
She also highlighted the gendered dimensions of the refugee crisis, saying: \u201cWe know very well that women and girls comprise the large majority of those displaced by the war and that it aggravates pre-existing inequalities and vulnerabilities. We are very happy to see how host communities are able and willing to support displaced women and girls from Ukraine.\u201d<\/p>\n
To date, six women\u2019s rights organizations and women-led organizations implemented projects funded by the Women’s Peace and Humanitarian Fund, in which over 1,400 refugees received emergency assistance, around 600 women joined training and counselling sessions and 167 women took part in leadership programs. In this context, 35 women and girls, both local and refugees, benefited from the project run by Anastasia Bacico.<\/p>\n
More than that, Bacico\u2019s project offers an opportunity for displaced women to be involved in the refugee response. The activities were designed with inputs from a local group of refugees, and several refugees volunteer at the salon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
