Woman who founded human trafficking shelter honoured


A woman who helped to set up a shelter for victims of human trafficking has been honoured as the Most Inspirational Arab Woman at L'Officiel Abu Dhabi Arab Women Awards. Sarah Suhail was one of the founders of Ewa'a Shelters for Women and Children.

"It has been a challenging experience as it's the first shelter of its kind in the region," Mrs Suhail said.

"In saying this, the team and I have managed to achieve successful milestones, which have been highly regarded by different countries and regions internationally." More than 400 women attended the awards.
