Feminisation of migration

Feminisation of migration means more and more girls and women are moving from one place to another place to live, work, study or marry. It is called feminisation because girls and women make up a large number of the people who move from one place to another.

When girls and women move to a new place, they face different issues compared to boys and men. They might face problems like not knowing the language, not having access to healthcare, education or job opportunities, and experiencing discrimination or violence.

Governments and organizations are trying to help girls and women who move to new places. They are creating policies and programs that give them support, such as access to education, employment, health care and legal assistance.

In conclusion, feminisation of migration is a big issue in the world and we need to support and protect girls and women who move to new places to ensure they have equal access to opportunities and rights.
