With the educational trip to Athens, the project “TIME TO LEARN” begins. The Ladies’ Union of Drama – H.O.H. is the implementing body and the CNPC “Alysos Alert” the partner.
The trip will take place on Friday, April 5, 2024 and includes a visit to the Ombudsman and the National Commission for Human Rights. The project started in March 2024 and has a duration of 12 months. It concerns the protection and promotion of the rights and values of the European Union/ BUILD. It aims to train 30 Roma women who live in the areas of Philippou and Ampelokipi of Drama, in human rights, to deal with anti-Gypsyism, to strengthen the implementing body, to exchange know-how and good practices with bodies in Greece and abroad. The implementing body will carry out weekly interventions in the two camps with the aim of informing the women, will draw up a report of possible human rights irregularities and deliver it to the Ombudsman. The partner will transfer to the implementing body the experience and the know-how it has in matters of preventing and combating domestic violence against Roma women.
The project “TIME TO LEARN” is implemented within the framework of the BUILD program, with the implementing body of the Ladies’ Union of Drama – H.O.H and, as a partner, the organization “Alysos Alert”.
