A meeting with girls IDPs in the collective centre "Samgurali” in Tskhaltubo started with the information about the 16 days campaign against gender violence. Participants consider that their rights are infringed since the issue of resettlement of IDPs living in Tskhaltubo, is very prolonged and they are in uncertain situation.
Discussing the topic of violence participants mentioned that the conditions they have to live in are often the reason of conflicts in their families.
An informational meeting within the 16 days campaign was held in one of the collective centres of Kutaisi (building of the hotel "Tbilisi”). The meeting was attended by 19 persons.
The same meeting was held the same day in the school #6. Participants of the meeting were teachers and senior pupils.
The theme of violence was not a new one for the participants. In their opinion the facts of violence based on unemployment and aggression are quite frequent.
Tolerance – this was the theme of the Round table organized by the members of the School of Young Women Leaders of Fund "Sukhumi” in Women’s Support centre of Senaki.
What contributes to aggression among young people? There was a hot debate after discussing of this question. According to the participants, the heart of this problem is migration, impact of gambling on young people, aggression from parents, and social problems.
Within the framework of the 16 days campaign psychologist of Fund "Sukhumi” met with women IDPs living in collective centre (former building of Culinary school) on Nikea street, in Kutaisi.
Participants listened to the information about violence with interest. Most of them think that they are victims of social-economic violence because they have to live in hard conditions.
At the end of the meeting the psychologist agreed with some women on individual meetings which will be arranged in the office of the organization.
