Here's information on the NGO from their Fundly page: "Aryyjan Karakol is a local community-based NGO in Karakol, Kyrgyz Republic... What originally started as a women’s rights organization that provided counsel (a 24-hour crisis hotline) to women who are victims of domestic abuse, bride kidnapping and property rights violations; and trainings to local village women on their rights as citizens, has since expanded its overall scope and evolved into a gender equality organization, inclusive to youth and men in its training sessions." | ||
