The Association of Women in Legal Careers says many single mothers with children cannot return to Moldova from the diaspora on their own.
Written later, from the reports of that day.
What it means for you
If you are a single mother coming back from abroad, AFCJ can help with housing for 5 to 12 months. The association gives money for rent and food and helps enrol your children in kindergarten and school. It can also give a grant for a small business and help you deal with state institutions.
What happened
For six years, the Association of Women in Legal Careers (AFCJ) has supported women from the diaspora in vulnerable situations who want or must return to Moldova. Its president, Veronica Lupu, says the state has no mechanism to identify and protect such women. Only NGOs, backed by foreign donors, do this work for now.
In short
- AFCJ works with associations in Germany, France, Portugal and other states.
- Financial support for rent and food lasts from 5 to 12 months.
- Many of the women left with their children to escape a violent husband or partner.
- Some women come to the attention of authorities in destination countries, which start repatriation procedures.
