Advocacy to achieve the goal
There are 500 IDP and local families in Ingiri community (Zugdidi municipality) - including people with disabilities, women with many children, the elderly. They have to walk and carry hard luggage from the central highway to the settlement, about 500 meters away. So they ask to change the transport traffic.
As part of the advocacy campaign, a petition was prepared, 290 signatures were collected, and a series of meetings were held with the Head of Municipal Transport Service, the Vice Mayor. Audio record prepared with the participation of the beneficiaries was prepared https://soundcloud.com/changetoempower/o4upeicij6rt
