Interview with UNHCR UNV worker in Chad - Changing Perspectives

Giuseppe Rullanti, United Nations Volunteer in Chad in 2008, knows the challenges of bringing the values of Age, Gender and Diversity Mainstreaming to the field. In this interview Rullanti says for some UNHCR workers AGDM begins mainly with taking on the responsibility of being true partners in solidarity with people of concern to UNHCR.

Rullanti is a social worker and author of the 2006 book LA RECHERCHE-ACTION AU SERVICE DE L'AUTO-DÉVELOPPEMENT - which addresses the issues of empowerment in the refugee community.
