(2021)
Abstract
This article was one in a series of eight case studies published as a collaborative storytelling project about the journeys migrant women take. More than 100 testimonies were collected worldwide to shed light on how gender affects migration, and the resilience of those who seek a new life far from home.
The eight case studies and supporting information are published at the website (https://womenandmigration.com/), and are based on research from the Women and Migration: Stories of Resilience project funded by the World University Network Research Development Fund. The project team members are: Floretta Boonzaier, University of Cape Town; Elizabeth Brabec, University of Massachusetts Amherst; Talitha Dubow, Maastricht University/ UNU-MERIT; Farida Fozdar, University of Western Australia; Ivan Katsere, University of Cape Town; Ortrun Merkle, Maastricht University/ UNU-MERIT; Linda Oucho, African Migration and Development Policy Centre; Marina de Regt, Free University of Amsterdam; Ann Singleton, University of Bristol; and Su-Lin Yu, National Cheng Kung University.
