As a result, the share of women among adult Ukrainian refugees is close to 70 percent in most host countries.
This is in contrast with other refugee flows; for example, women only made up 30 percent of all asylum applications during the 2015-17 refugee crisis in Europe.
Other data provided by the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees show that women accounted for slightly less than half of all those protected and/or assisted by the refugee agency in 2022.
We can refer to a "Feminization" of refugees in the Ukrainian context.
Ukrainian refugee women who fled without their husbands are faced with new responsibilities.
Ten percent of all Ukrainian refugees who left following the February 2022 Russian attack have returned home from abroad, according to the International Organization for Migration.
Welcoming Ukrainian women refugees in Europe or the United States and giving them access to the labor market does not necessarily ensure their economic integration.
