Support women survivors of war

There has never been a greater need for our work

With over twenty brutal armed conflicts across the globe and unprecedented levels of violence against women, there’s never been a greater need for Women for Women International’s work to support women survivors of war. All profits from the event were donated to Women for Women International to fund the vital work we do, such as our programme in Iraq to support Syrian and Iraqi women affected by the conflict and instability in the region.
