With the support of UNHCR, the NGO ‘I want to help refugees’ is implementing a project aimed at promoting the protection of recipients of international assistance in Latvia. The project consists of four interrelated activities:
- Protection and border monitoring: collecting data on the situation of Ukrainian refugees and border crossings to improve safe and transparent procedures.
- Legislation and information monitoring: tracking the accessibility and quality of services, especially for children and unaccompanied minors arriving in Latvia.
- Individual integration support: providing social worker services to those returning to Latvia after secondary movements or after state-funded support ends.
- Community engagement: promoting the participation of international protection recipients in the host community.
The project runs from January to December 2026, with a total budget of €92,270.
