The Health Kit Saving The Lives of Female Refugees

Health Matters

Available for over a year

Health kits for pregnant female refugees and the 50th anniversary of human rights. Women who are displaced because of war or natural disaster are among the most vulnerable groups in the world. A kit from the Red Cross containing contraception, post natal treatments and the morning-after pill are being distributed to help them. Also on the 50th anniversary of the signing of the International Declaration of Human Rights the programme asks what rights do women have over their lives and bodies today.
