Women rightsInternational aid

Sistech is committed to helping refugee women choose a qualified and sustainable professional future that will enable them to achieve economic and social emancipation. Sistech fights the "it's better than nothing" attitude by demanding equal opportunities for everyone in France, Italy and Greece.

Solution

In Europe, the unemployment rate for refugee women is twice that of refugee men, even though they are, on average, twice as qualified.

Sistech has co-constructed a support program exclusively for refugee women, asylum seekers, and women benefiting from subsidiary or temporary protection. This is to put an end to this waste of skills and talents, and enable them to return to a dignified and ordinary life.
