Alireza Moula Population-based empowerment practice in immigrant communiti

The significant social problems that confront immigrant families that have immigrated to Western countries have been described in the literature.

However, these investigations have not focused on how the situation of these families can be improved.

Therefore, Dr.

Alireza Moula conducted an intervention study involving Iranian families in Sweden.

After the empirical study, Dr.

Moula initiated a two-year intervention program.

This program was carried out within the Swedish Organization for the Rights of Children (BRIS) and used communication technology such as live local radio lectures and a telephone help-line to provide support.

RAHYAB (Moula Empowerment Model) was used both in educative radio programs and in the help- line conversations.
