Biography After finishing his studies in politics and history, Godea started an activist career in the NGO sector. In 1999 he was appointed as a program coordinator at “CONTACT” National Assistance and Information Center for NGOs in Moldova. Later in 2005, he became the Executive Director of the organization.
