Published on: 11/02/2025

Two years have passed since the devastating earthquakes in Türkiye.

Currently, there are still over 1.6 million people in need including 416,000 women and girls of reproductive age. 22,800 of them are pregnant.

Fatma, Mehtap, Selda and Saliha are just some of them. They are still feeling the pain and living in container cities with many challenges, including limited access to services.
