Daily chores

The refugee camps are made up of a population of which around 80% are women, children and elderly people. Since 1975 and the early days of exile, women assumed a primary role in running daily affairs in the camps. With the men away fighting, in what became a 16-year long war, the women had to develop skills in the fields of health, education and administration.
