“Woman for woman” is a platform launched by the NGO “Women’s Perspectives” aimed at helping women in crisis. We publish stories from their perspective since no one can tell her story better than the woman herself.
We are enhancing the voice of women in crisis so that their stories could reach those who are able to help.

Autumn is approaching, with rain and cold weather, and I am terrified about how we will survive the winter..

I had to quit my job. The father of my children passed away in 2020, but we were not officially married, so there is no support or assistance. I am left alone, without hope, and without means to live...
