Support for women from the Republic of Moldova and Ukraine: Sweden offers about 11 million euros

Sweden is offering almost 11 million euros in support of women and girls from the Republic of Moldova and Ukraine, announced the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Stockholm.

This support aims to strengthen the two countries' efforts to respond to the humanitarian needs of women and girls and to promote their opportunities and rights in both the short and long term. The statement also states that Russia's large-scale invasion of Ukraine and attacks on health and medical care facilities have consequences that put the lives of women and girls at risk. These allocated funds can be used for life-saving assistance through additional mobile health clinics, equipment to prevent maternal and child mortality, and protection and support for victims of conflict-related sexual violence.
