Gender assessment of the refugee and migration crisis in Serbia and FYR Macedonia

In October 2015, UN Women’s Regional Office for Europe and Central Asia (ECA) commissioned a gender assessment of the humanitarian response in Serbia and fYR Macedonia (where UN Women has a programme presence) to gain a better understanding of the specific needs, priorities and risk factors facing women and girls in the context of the escalating crisis, to assess the extent to which the current response is meeting those needs, to make recommendations to strengthen the response, as well as to identify what operational role UN Women might play.
