A one day workshop on medical advice was held for women in the VTC.

This workshop was run jointly by the staff and some outstanding students of the center.

Topics covered were benefits of drinking water for the kidneys, damage to bladders due to not relieving urine for long time periods, harm form the use of non-prescription medicine and others.

The workshop was simple but very useful for the women; they took part in discussions and were happy to learn new issues.

OPAWC'S aims for arranging such workshops are to give the women a moment to think differently, to have the chance to talk about different issues, to let them enhance their knowlege and capacity, and to learn ways and methods how to defend themselves when facing a problem.
