The
organization is working the promotion of the human rights and gender
right in the society through strengthening and education for the

women in Somalia
This
year 2010 September we will make 16 days camps fight against the
VAW and we also will celebrate the international year of the youth
which is recognized to be 2010 by the UN and international youth
organizations.
Somalia
where we work is a war-torn country where there is no powerful function
government and stability. Two decades of civil and religious fighting
destroyed whole public infrastructures. There is no low enforcement
and justice emplace there.
Girl
education
In Somalia girls education enrolment is really very slow that is
12% this is big gape that needs to bridged. We GAAR encourage girls
to attend school unfortunately there are problems preventing the
girls to go schools.
The
biggest problem is cultural orientation and ignorance from some
of the parents who have no more idea about the important of the
knowledge. The second problem is poverty that restricts the families
to pay the fees of the schools particularly.
Some
families send schools to boys only while girls are subjected to
domestic heavy works and child laboring in the markets and public
places. So we call all patents to let their children the attend
schools equally boys and girls.
Educating
girl is educating world
