I'm a volunteer at Winrock International's New Perspectives for Women project in Moldova.
New Perspectives for Women Project has the purpose to prevent Human Trafficking in Moldova and to help young girls aged 16-25 to build a future here in Moldova near their families and with out trying to go abroad and become victims of Human Trafficking.
It's so great to have such a program in my country and to be able to fight for a change. Life is beautiful if you make it so! Our School of Volunteers "Peer Perspectives" started in December 2006, and during one month we had trainings and graduated! The most interesting started: after successful test presentations we started going into villages to share our experience with others!
My first visited village was village Cupcini in Edinet region. It was my first presentation and I was nervous, but having our coordinator near helped in doing the best we could. We had an interactive discussion with girls from a board school. They were so happy to see us and to talk to us! After this visit more and more schools were visited by NPW volunteers and more and more girls learned about human trafficking and domesctic violence.
