PROJECTS 2006 TO 2009: THE LYDIA PROJECT: MIRIAM -
CHANGING THE WORLD TOGETHER, EASTERN EUROPE
Background
The Lydia Project empowers women to help the most hurt
people of 16 East European countries, from Russia in the
north to Albania in the south.
 |
New church and community projects are planned
and advanced at gatherings/events arranged by the
Lydia Project; they share best practice and create
joint projects of practical work with street and
HIV/AIDS children, abused and trafficked women,
unemployed people, refugees from regional wars,
Roma families, pensioners and orphans or youth with
no future. |
The Guild’s support will enable opportunities,
that will not otherwise happen, for women to develop
new partnerships; with each other and other deprived
groups. Mutual encouragement, learning and inspiration,
sometimes between women of countries that have been
enemies, strengthens the ability to establish new work
(after decades of state control) with people who were
devastated by radical social and economic change.
