Being a woman in the Middle East can be challenging at the best of times.

‘Four years ago, I lost my husband in an accident and was left alone with three children. In the society in which I live, when you lose your husband it is like you too are considered dead. I felt worthless and alone,’ Nasrin said. ‘I was living without hope in darkness, facing poverty and many other difficulties.’
