RAMA’S STORY
18 months, alone in a detention centre
The Goodwill Caravan team found little Rama at the age of 18 months, alone in a detention centre. Her elderly sick grandmother, who was her last surviving relative, was separated from her after the grandmother was taken to hospital.
This left Rama all alone, terrified and at risk of trafficking and organ trade at such a young age.
The Goodwill Caravan legal team was able to release her from detention and transport her safely into our Women and Children’s shelter. Within 4 months, our legal team completed the family reunification paperwork and little Rama was reunited safely with her Grandmother and now are living in Germany to start a new life.
