Honoring Women’s Rights Activists on International Women’s Day

This International Women’s Day, we honor all the women who support each other in these extraordinary times.
 
Today, hundreds of thousands of women have fled the conflict in Ukraine, many caring for dependents, after being separated from their adult male relatives who are required to remain behind because conscription has been activated. They join the millions of refugees around the world. This is another reminder that armed conflicts and refugee crises are women’s rights crises.
