Similarly, at the Nea Kavala camp, refugee women of different ages and nationalities discussed women’s struggles for the assertion of their rights. The participants watched videos in their own language, expressed their ideas about what it means to be a woman and shared the wisdom of folk traditions, drawing traditional henna designs on each other, symbolizing womanhood and strength!
