dc.description.abstract Social support from informal support sources plays a pivotal role in smoothing the adaptation process of refugees in their host countries. This study's main objective was to examine the social support experiences of Yemeni refugee women in Addis Ababa. The study employed a qualitative, descriptive phenomenological design. Thirteen Yemeni refugee women were interviewed using a semi-structured interview guide. Using purposive sampling, study participants were selected. The study's findings indicated that refugee women received various types of social support from family, friends, and independent sponsors, including instrumental support, emotional support, and informational support. For refugee women, strengthening their existing informal social networks is crucial since these networks provide them with informational, emotional, and instrumental support. en_US
dc.description.abstract Sprijinul social din surse informale joacă un rol esențial în aplanarea procesului de adaptare al refugiaților în țările lor gazdă. Obiectivul principal al acestui studiu a fost să examineze experiențele de sprijin social al femeilor refugiate yemenite din Addis Abeba. Studiul a folosit un design fenomenologic calitativ, descriptiv. Treisprezece femei refugiate yemenite au fost intervievate folosind un ghid de interviu semi-structurat. Prin eșantionare intenționată au fost selectați participanții la studiu. Concluziile studiului au indicat, că femeile refugiate au primit diverse tipuri de sprijin social din partea familiei, prietenilor și a sponsorilor independenți, inclusiv sprijin instrumental, suport emoțional și suport informațional. Pentru femeile refugiate, consolidarea rețelelor lor sociale informale existente este crucială, deoarece aceste rețele le oferă sprijin informațional, emoțional și instrumental. en_US
