I really enjoyed writing my first article for @PulseHuman on women refugees in the Aegean. Read below!

[Human Rights Pulse @PulseHuman]

Across refugee camps in the Aegean islands, women have experienced an increase in #gender-basedviolence, mental health problems, and period poverty as a result of the pandemic. Alice Berkeley calls for a response which reduces gender-based exploitation.

It was my great pleasure to talk to refugee rights activist and co-founder of NGO Glocal Roots Liska Bernet about the current situation on the ground in the Aegean. To watch our interview click the link below!

@Natasha_Walter @WASTCampaigning Thanks for the retweet Natasha. I completely agree- it is so important to listen to women with lived experience and amplify their voices rather than speaking for them!

Check out my latest article for @PulseHuman on a new #detentioncentre in County Durham. The piece includes first-hand testimonies from female asylum seekers who have spent time in detention. Thank you to Women Asylum Seekers Together for providing these!

If men could bring up male suicide on its own terms and not in opposition or to deflect from women’s issues that would be great.

[Alice Berkeley @aliceberkeley_]

This is a truly terrifying concept that must be opposed at all costs!

A recent lawsuit filed in the #UnitedStates by former child slaves against 7 major chocolate companies highlights the link between #childslavery and agriculture in #IvoryCoast. Alice Berkeley calls for an international commitment to eliminate child labour.

To understand the situation female refugees are facing in the Aegean, read this report by @PulseHuman https://t.co/VnE1Rmhzlj . Together, we can change this!

[Europe Must Act- Exeter @ExeterMustAct]

Today is International Women's Day. Today we draw attention to the refugee women who face a 'triple crisis' due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
