I felt myself to be in a real family, which I had never really had. You were there for me when I needed someone.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><em>Elif, 15 Jahre<\/em><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>In total, I was at PAPATYA for just over two months. If I had to say how I have changed, I would say that I have become stronger, more patient and freer. My hope for the future is that one day I can change what is expected of women in my culture.

We have often wondered what has happened to them after they left PAPATYA. Therefore, we have started to enquire with former residents how it went for them after PAPATYA. From that a book has emerged \u201cMy Life, My Way\u201d, stories that give courage.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy Life, My Way\u201d gives six young women, who have done a lot to achieve their wish for freedom, the opportunity to tell their stories. All had to leave their families and today live the lives that they have themselves chosen. They let us participate in their experiences, the highs and lows and want to encourage all those, who still have this path in front of them.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/PDF\/MeinLebenmeinWeg.pdf\">Download the book as PDF here.

We can recommend the following two books:<\/p>\n<p>In the book \u201cI am a different person\u201d (In German: \u201cIch bin eine Andere\u201d), \u201cDilan S\u201d tells about her way out of a violent family into freedom. With her story Dilan wants to encourage other young girls to fight for their freedom. Further information about the book and to read a trial section of the book can be found on the website of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.piper.de\/buecher\/ich-bin-eine-andere-isbn-978-3-492-97537-7-ebook\">PIPER Verlags<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Under the name \u201cAyse\u201d, a former resident tells of her escape from a forced marriage into a self-determined life in anonymity. The book is called \u201cScheherazades Daughter\u201d(In German: \u201cScheherazades Tochter\u201d)\u00a0 and appeared in 2004 at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ullsteinbuchverlage.de\/nc\/buch\/details\/scheherazades-tochter-9783548364841.html\">Ullstein Verlag<\/a>, where you can find further information.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row row_height_percent=&#8221;0&#8243; overlay_alpha=&#8221;50&#8243; gutter_size=&#8221;3&#8243; column_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; shift_y=&#8221;0&#8243; z_index=&#8221;5&#8243; inverted_device_order=&#8221;yes&#8221; el_class=&#8221;papier&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image media=&#8221;477&#8243; media_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text] Voices of previous residents The months at [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":1687,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-2334","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/papatya.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2334","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/papatya.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/papatya.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/papatya.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/papatya.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2334"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/papatya.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2334\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2590,"href":"https:\/\/papatya.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2334\/revisions\/2590"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/papatya.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1687"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/papatya.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2334"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
