A WIDE+ call for Cooperation and Solidarity: Consequences of closing borders for women and children seeking asylum in Europe
WIDE+ aims to write a position paper based on the facts analysed with a critical feminist perspective, but first we need to investigate and assess the situation. We turn to you because we intend to gather information by asking you about your experiences. Would you consider to collaborate in an awareness raising process on this issue together with WIDE+ and other civil organisations? If you are positive to our idea, please contact us at: wgmigration@wideplus.info
