Bridging Divides: How WCRA is Empowering Vulnerable Women and Children across Egypt and Beyond
The movement of people from the rural south to the more industrialized north has long characterized migration in Egypt. This internal migration pattern, driven by economic hardship, has disproportionately affected women and children, especially those from Upper Egypt. The Women’s and Children’s Rights Association in Assiut (WCRA) has emerged as a vital support system for these vulnerable groups, providing technical and legal assistance to help them navigate the social, economic, and environmental challenges they face in internal migration.
