We have started!

Today – 23 of June 2017, in the MID center in Filipovovtzi, HESED started the piloting of the Popular Opinion Leader (POL) model and its adaptation for gender based violence prevention use. The results for the adaptation will be used for development and dissemination of methodology for prevention of GBV in Roma community. We start to work with 12 young people – opinion leaders in their social networks who were successfully selected and recruited by our outreach workers.

The activities are part of the yMIND project, supported by the Erasmus + programme of the European Union (Initiatives for policy innovation – Social inclusion through education, training and youth – EACEA 05/2016).

We work with desire and enthusiasm on this new challenge!
