Maysun had to flee her home because of the Islamic State. Today, she runs a successful restaurant in Iraq

Being a single mother is not easy, especially in a country like Iraq. As the head of her family, Maysun has long struggled financially and has barely been able to support her loved ones.

Women play an essential role in humanitarian aid. Why are they so important?

What is it like to be a woman affected by war or natural disaster? What do women and girls need in such situations? This is often better understood by other women, humanitarian aid workers. Up to 40 per cent of the more than half a million aid workers worldwide are women. Our colleagues, women humanitarian and development aid workers, explain why they think it is important for women to be involved in this field.
