Baseline Survey on Gender & Long-Term Forced Migration
Gender and forced migration as an approach, both in research and humanitarian assistance, is still evolving. There is increased awareness of the differences in the gender impact of forced migrants. The objectives of this study were to build onto existing literature on the subject of forced migration and the differentiated experience and impact of forced migration on women and men; examine the policy environment around migration in Africa and highlight gender gaps; reflect best practices and challenges of gender mainstreaming
in migration; identify the degree to which local women's NGOs are involved in addressing long-term forced migration, gaps in collective organising by women, and how AMwA can partner with these organisations in order to ensure their increased involvement; produce a mapping of women's organisations and mainstream organisations working in the area of long-term forced migration.
