Currently, Belarusian women are facing daily injustice, lawlessness, and a legal vacuum organized at the hands of dictator Lukashenka and his junta.
Criminal and administrative charges, imprisonment, fines that are higher than the average income in Belarus, civil lawsuits, systematic pressure, and surveillance by the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the KGB, constant threats of losing one’s parental rights or children being removed from their families, threats to the lives and safety of these women and their families is now just a fact of life in Belarus.
Status "Woman political prisoner" in Belarus: Description & Categories (belaruswomen.org)
WOMEN POLITICAL PRISONERS IN BELARUS (belaruswomen.org)
These women are in need of our financial support, and we cannot turn a blind eye to their plight!
We also help the children and families of female political prisoners.
There are many mothers among the female political prisoners, including the mothers of many children, or single mothers. Each of them dreams of her children’s prosperity and happiness.
As long as these women remain behind bars, our task is to help and support their children, providing the mothers with at least a little sense of relief.
