For the past 11 years, Syria’s conflict has taken a massive toll on every Syrian, particularly women and girls. What drives them to live another day, despite the myriad of dangers they face? What gives them the strength to disrupt the social norms that limit their lives?
EU humanitarian partner World Vision has joined British illustrator Paul Blow to bring the empowering stories of women and girls to life through animation.
Through their partnership, the EU and World Vision are alleviating the suffering of women affected by gender-based violence, empowering them to achieve their dreams.

In northwest Syria, displaced Syrian women and girls who live in camps in Idleb are defying the embedded social and cultural norms that prescribed their lives as war continues.
Day after day, the EU and World Vision are helping these women and girls with healthcare and support to overcome violence, trauma, and ensure their safety.
