Challenge
There are about 26 million people who fled their countries due to conflict, violence, or war. Note that women suffer more vulnerabilities such as widespread gender-based violence and almost 60% of female refugees suffer period poverty problems as they rather spend their funding on food or sacrifice pads for baby diapers
