This report is a continuation to an EU-funded project “Co-creating a Counselling Method for Refugee Women GBV Victims”, which attempted to increase the visibility of refugee women’s experiences of gender-based violence in the European Union. This report is an attempt to make these women’s voices heard, raise awareness and promote discussion on the topic of violence against women especially in the refugee context. The last chapter of the report summarizes policy recommendations: 1) improving the gender-sensitiveness of the asylum system to tackle the disadvantageous position of women in the process; 2) a more victim-centred criminal justice process to encourage the reporting of crime; 3) improving access to services for victims of GBV irrespective of their residence status.
