Awareness Activities

Women are reached in the project not only in the Community Group meetings but also in the framework of specific Awareness Activities and for most vulnerable groups.

The IEC activities for community members –particularly women - in the community rooms allow to acquire knowledge and skills, raise awareness, exchange experience, get to know each other and “warm up” to the idea to meet others from the community in a non-formal setting. Specialist from the Regional Health Authorities (ASP) and Hospitals were available as lecturer, including the Director of the ASP Botosani.
