An estimated 35 million people worldwide are displaced by conflict,
and most of them are women and children. During their time away
from their homes and communities, these women and their children
are subjected to a horrifying array of misfortune, including
privations of every kind, sexual assaults, disease, imprisonment,
unwanted pregnancies, severe psychological trauma, and, upon return
or resettlement, social disapproval and isolation. Written by the
world's leading scholars and practitioners, this unique collection
brings these problems - and potential solutions - into sharp focus.
Based on extensive field research and a broad knowledge of other
studies of the challenges facing women who are forced from their
homes and homelands by conflict, this book offers in-depth
understanding and problem-solving ideas. Derived from a project to
advise U.N. agencies, it speaks to a broad array of students,
scholars, NGOs, policymakers, government officials, and
international organizations.
