On March 8th we held the event “Women for peace” at the Vienna Pavilion in the Tsar Simeonova Garden in Plovdiv. The purpose of our initiative was to focus the attention on the important role women have in peacemaking in the context of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine.
At the end of the month we did a very useful and interesting discussion with experts on the topics of the effects of long COVID-19 on women’s health and the mental health of women.
