The RENATE documentary is a powerful film highlighting the many issues surrounding Human Trafficking. It will be aired during the assembly on Monday 7th November.
This Trailer is for the upcoming RENATE film called ‘Giving Voice to the Voiceless’. The film expresses, in a dynamic way, the RENATE mission against human trafficking, in many European countries including Albania.

Participants of RENATE are meeting for the 2nd RENATE assembly in Rome 6th-12th November.
The campaign calls us to work together to stop the trafficking of girls and women, which is an extreme form of violence. Many face forced labour in hazardous conditions with no chance of an education and no chance to escape from a cycle of poverty.
There are many simple ways to be part of this campaign. The complete list of resources and campaign actions are available at: acrath.org.au/16days.

Professor Michael Meyer, the Vienna University of Economics and Business, facilitated the first course in Sarajevo on the 6th and 7th of October. The course focused on Leadership and Teams. Two members of MWL staff and two members of RENATE were amongst the seventeen course participants from different organisations in Albania, Austria, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Croatia, Kosovo, Romania, Serbia and the UK.
In contemporary times, the popular understanding of leadership is that of leading in and with teams. The theories of leader as ‘lone wolf’ or ‘great person,’ are long outdated. The focus now is on social processes within teams. Leaders will continuously have to prove themselves within teams and be prepared for the dynamics of such teams.
Meanwhile, leadership behaviour and its impact on organisational success has a prominent position within theoretical and empirical management research. However, there is not only a considerable gap between ‘knowing and doing,’ but there is also a deep gap between academic logic and common sense. Both of these gaps should be bridged.
The main topics of this course were separated into four sessions:
Session 1: Team Work & Group Dynamics
Session 2: Problem Solving
Session 3: Leadership Theories
This short course was well organised, with role-play and very practical exercises.
