Strong women: Sandesneben plans to protect protection workshops for children!

In Sandesneben it is bubbling: The association "Women help women" is committed to the rights of women and children affected by violence. At the initiative of Miriam Peters, an experienced social worker, the association is planning workshops for self -assertion for the coming year.

The association is faced with financial challenges to carry out the planned workshops. In the country, the networking of women is often not as strong as in men, which can lead to isolation. "We have completely different structures in the country than in the city," explains a consultant of the association, Christina Dabelstein. For mothers, the time of the workshops can be a valuable opportunity to advise themselves or help themselves. At the same time, the “Madita” association was founded to initiate educational projects for women as well as children and adolescents. These projects have the goal of promoting equality and human rights, reports Madita .

Both organizations are strongly committed to a non -violent society in which women can live regardless of nationality or social status. "We believe the women," says a consultant of the association "Women help women" and emphasizes how important it is to respond individually to the needs of those affected. The future of these initiatives depends on the support of the public and potential donors, since the projects currently have too little financial backing.
