We are a specialized NGO
Deliberately small but essential.
We strongly believe that also a little but efficient structure can make the difference.
GRT works in different fields
Mental health
The Group for Transcultural Relations aims to find effective methods to support a different way of thinking and therapeutic practice from those in the West.
Children in adversity
The aim of the GRT is to defend the rights and wishes of children first and then to propose rehabilitation.
Gender violence
Gender based violence is widespread all over the world and is one of the most recurrent and difficult problems to solve.
Forced Migration
Our mission is to listen to people, accompany them and mediate in urban communities by building refuges.
Where we work
We intervene in those territories where mental health is not a priority. Where people that are mentally ill are often discriminated and isolated.
