Every Single Woman campaign from the Women's Asylum Charter
Asylum Aid's Charter of Rights of Women Seeking Asylum has been highly commended at this year's Charity Awards, which are held to celebrate talent and expertise in the voluntary sector.
Every single woman, the new campaign under the Women's Asylum Charter focuses on the disparity in the treatment of women who are seeking asylum compared with women settled in the UK.
We believe a change of culture designed to produce a genuinely gender sensitive asylum system is urgently needed to ensure that women seeking asylum receive a comparable standard of treatment to women in similar situations who are settled here already.
