Introducing myself and my journal: Gurdofarid - the first woman leader of her time!



About Me:
My name is Roziya Jarkinzoda. I live in the village Khistevarz in Tajikistan. I am 63 and worked as an English language teacher for 42 years in the local shool. I have also opened NGO with other active women of my community to help population to live better, to support rural women to know their rights and be happy. We have opened free juridical center for women which already helped more than 157 women with their problems. And prevented 78 families of destroying. Through NGO Gurdofarid (Gurdofarid - the name of the Queen in an ancient persian country and also mentioned in the greatest work of Firdousi "Shahname" as a woman leader and fighter.) we have opened "Mothers' School", Education Center where currently study 120 students learning Russian, English, German and Chinese languages and of course learning computer sciences. Its very important to teach people how effectively use internet in their career.
