“The theme of educational and cultural poverty is closely linked to the issue of economical poverty and the problem of women’s loneliness – FDEI president pastor Gabriela Lio told  NEV agency – with all the anger, fear, illness, loss of self-esteem, which seem to be the components of a vicious circle of poverty, marginality and inadequate education”.
