Gendered Aspects of Ukraine’s Displacement Crisis

Series
The Migration Oxford Podcast
Embed
With war comes displacement. The full-scale invasion of Ukraine has forced millions to flee homes and rebuild elsewhere. What role does a women's agency play in navigating the complexities of displacement and building resilience?
With the full-scale invasion of Ukraine disastrously continuing into 2025, what has become of the many millions forced to flee their homes and rebuild? Often as centralised figures of the home and family units in traditional Ukrainian households, many women are affected in ways that take on a gendered lens. What are some common strategies they employ to cope with their displacement and rebuild their lives?

This episode is being released to mark the third anniversary of Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
What role does a women's agency play in navigating the complexities of displacement and building resilience? We explore the concept of 'twice displacement' and the intersection of gender and migration studies. Drawing on Dr Dvornichenko’s research findings, we discuss the outcomes of a quantitative survey among 1000 displaced Ukrainian women and 60 in-depth interviews conducted with displaced Ukrainian women.
How do the experiences of internally displaced women in Ukraine differ from those who have been externally displaced? What are the common patterns and trends in return or to stay intentions among internally and externally displaced Ukrainians?
In this episode of The Migration Oxford Podcast, we welcome Dr Daryna Dvornichenko, research fellow at the Department of Politics and International Relations, University of Oxford and a displaced Ukrainian and mother of a teenaged daughter; Tania Orlova, Founder and Business Director of 2BWell, a digital initiative designed to address the escalating mental health crisis affecting millions of Ukrainians due to war and displacement, and a displaced Ukrainian now based in the UK.
